What is a padel Americano?

A padel Americano is a social format for doubles where partners change every round. Each game is played to a fixed number of points and each player keeps the points their team won. After the last round the player with the most points wins.

Questions

How does scoring work?

Each game is played to a fixed total of points, for example 24. Type one team's score and the other is filled in. Every player gets the points their team won, and the leaderboard ranks by total points, then points difference.

What is the difference between Americano and Mexicano?

In Americano the whole schedule is set in advance so that partners rotate and everyone partners everyone as far as possible. In Mexicano only the first round is set; after each round, players are re-paired from the standings, with 1st and 4th playing 2nd and 3rd on the top court, and so on down.

How many points is a padel Americano game?

A common choice is 24 or 32 points per game, served in blocks of four. The fixed total means every court finishes together. Choose it under Points per game.
