How the week works

Updated 9 November 2026.

Rails runs on a weekly cycle. You never search for a game, swipe or negotiate a time.

Thursday: confirm your week

Tell us when you can play next week. It takes two taps, and if you change nothing, last week's windows roll forward.

Friday: the matching run

We pair members within about half a level, avoid repeating the same pairing more than once a month, and book the court.

Sunday evening: your games arrive

Each game comes with its time, court, opponent and a one-line intro.

After each game

Both players log the score in one tap and say whether the game was too easy, right or too hard. That answer tunes your next pairing.
