Hi folks!

Welcome to DinkRadar, a passion project by EsperSentinel for everyone who plays pickleball in Singapore, and maybe beyond!

We’re still building, so a few things may wobble along the way. Spotted a bug or something we got wrong, got an idea, or just want to say hi? We’d love to hear it. Just tap at the top of any page, any time.

There’s been an update Version 0.3

  • Clearer court names on the map
  • Find paddles approved by both USAP and UPA-A in one tap
  • Weekly Meetup sessions added to open play

Here’s to growing a friendly pickleball community together. See you on court!
