What each one is

- The other pair confirms each score, and a score nobody answers confirms itself after 72 hours.

What Padeliga does not do: it does not book courts or take payments, it has no tournament day court scheduler or live scoring, and it runs padel only. A challenge ladder is coming but not yet live.
