Keep Your Padel Score Clear with the ScoreKeeper

A long rally, a quick change of ends, one more serve. Then someone asks: “Was that 30–30 or 40–30?” If you have ever stopped a padel match to piece together the last few points, you know how easily the score can slip your mind.

The PadelGrab ScoreKeeper gives you a simple way to keep a visible record, so you can get on with the next rally.

What is the ScoreKeeper?

The ScoreKeeper is a compact, mechanical score counter for padel and tennis. You move its sliding markers by hand to record the score. It is made from plastic, weighs just 2 grams and needs no batteries, app or internet connection.

The display has separate sections for points and games, with a marker for each side. That makes it easy to check both the current game and the game score without relying entirely on memory.

How to use it during a match

1. Start at zero. Reset the points and games before you begin, and agree which colour represents each team.
2. Update after each point. Move the winning team's point marker before the next serve.
3. Record each game. When a team wins a game, adjust its game marker and reset the point markers.
4. Check together. Keep calling the score aloud so all four players can follow along.

For example, if your team wins a point at 30–30, move your marker to 40. If you win the next point and the game, add a game and return the point markers to zero.

A quick reminder of padel scoring

Points normally progress from 0 to 15, 30 and 40, followed by game. At 40–40, the next steps depend on your match format. Agree the rules before playing, including how you will handle deuce and deciding points. A score counter records your score; it does not choose the rules or detect who won a rally.

Make keeping score a habit

The most useful routine is a short one: call the score, move the marker, then serve. If two players both update the counter, it is easy to count a point twice, so choose one person to manage it.

Whether you are learning the game or playing your regular doubles session, a visible score can help reduce interruptions and uncertainty. You still need to update it consistently, but you no longer have to reconstruct every point from memory.
