    Video Gear Details

    With Smashpoint, it is easy to add your videos to a match or practice result. Upload your video to your YouTube account and then embed the YouTube URL in a Smashpoint match or practice result. YouTube is the global standard for video sharing and by keeping your videos in your account, you can watch videos on any platform including your big TV. We are big GoPro fans for Tennis videos. The GoPro camera is lightweight and can handle being out in the sun. With an extra battery attached, you can record many hours of video without breaking a sweat. We have tested many video solutions and here is our favorite set up:

    • GoPro Hero (4K at 60 FPS or less resolution with higher FPS for detailed slow motion playback)

    • Anker Battery Pack + USB Extension Cord

    • Fence Camera Mount

  • Web App June 2020 Update

    Smashpoint Web App Home

    Our latest web app release includes new customization features for a better experience. Go to Settings to select what player should be featured on the new home profile banner. If you prefer to see Activity Rings or a Rankings table simply select a different banner. You can also select what player stats should be shown in /Results. When you log a new match result you can now select who the 1st player should be in Settings. The new features should speed up and enhance the app experience for tennis parents, coaches and organizers. We also added player profile photos in this release to all match results (see doubles match result below).

    Portland Evergreen Tennis Club

    The Evergreen Tennis 4 court facility is 45 feet high, 120 feet wide and over 200 feet long in a single, open span! The lightweight architectural design allows sunlight through the translucent ceiling, creating an even natural light and protection from the direct sun. This makes for excellent lighting with a tall ceiling and open span, an environment much like playing outside, with shade in the summer, and minus the wind and rain the rest of the year! Similar lightweight and translucent fabric structures are used now for tennis internationally by Tennis Australia, Wimbledon and the U.S. Open center court. Evergreen Tennis is a private club that is also open to the public.
