American Padel Tournament 10-Player Ranking Template

This template is built for a small‑scale American padel tournament with up to ten participants. It contains four interconnected sheets: Players, where you list each competitor’s name, club and contact; Matches, where you schedule each head‑to‑head game, select the two players from dropdowns and record the final score; Scores, which automatically converts raw match results into points according to the tournament’s scoring rules (win = 2 points, loss = 0, optional tie‑break bonuses); and Leaderboard, a dynamic table that aggregates total points, win‑loss records, set differences and produces a ranked list that updates instantly as you enter new results. Dropdown menus keep data entry consistent, while conditional formatting highlights the current leader and any ties.
The template solves the common headache of manually calculating standings after every round. Organizers no longer need to juggle spreadsheets or risk arithmetic errors; the built‑in formulas keep the leaderboard accurate in real time. This saves valuable time during busy tournament days, lets you focus on the sport rather than paperwork, and provides players with a clear, transparent view of their progress. Whether you’re running a club‑level competition, a weekend social event, or a regional qualifier, the template adapts to any 10‑player format and can be quickly customized for different point systems.
How to use
