A Saudi platform built for sports and learning academiesEasy registration, payment and follow-up
MidmarA booking and management system for tennis and padel academies that sell lessons: create adult and junior programmes, give each group as many places as the court can take, and players book their place and pay from their phone, with the money going to your academy's account with no middleman. Renting courts by the hour is not something it offers.
A padel court is enough for four players with a coach, so if one of them agrees to a fifth on WhatsApp, the lesson is spoiled for everyone. A player asks for a place and then pays late, leaving a quarter of the group empty for a week. And in the same notebook are adults paying for themselves, juniors whose parents pay for them, and private lessons at a different price. If your business is renting courts by the hour, that is not what Midmar offers.
Tennis, padel, squash or badminton: the system handles your academy's lessons and subscriptions, and the court stays in your hands, run as you run it today:
You choose each group's capacity: four for padel, or two or three for tennis, with one coach. When three places or fewer are left, visitors see "Only 2 left", and when it is full it shows "Full" and no new enrolment is accepted. Each group has its days and hours, and you can put the court number in its name: "Court 2 · Sunday and Tuesday".
Make a group with one place and it becomes a private lesson, or two places and it becomes a paired lesson, each with its own price and payment cycle. The player books it from your academy's portal just as they book a place in a group of four.
An adult player opens their account and joins the adults' programme in their own name, and from the same account adds their children if they wish. The system does not accept a child in a programme for adults, or an adult in the juniors' programme.
You set who each programme accepts: mixed for adult padel, for example, or girls only, or boys, and each programme has its age range. Any enrolment that does not meet these conditions is refused before it reaches the court.
A pack with a stated number of lessons, such as 8 lessons, stays valid for 90 days from payment, and suits adults who don't commit to a full month. For juniors there is a monthly or termly subscription. The system does not reduce the pack's balance with each attendance, but the attendance record shows how many lessons the player attended.
The player books their place and pays by mada, Apple Pay, card or Tamara, and Tabby is available if the academy asks for it. If 48 hours pass without payment, the place becomes available to others again. They receive a renewal reminder by email five days before their subscription ends, then on the day it ends.
An example of how to set it up, not a real academy.
| Programme | Category | Age | Cycle and price | Groups |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini tennis | Children · mixed | 5–8 | Monthly · SAR 550 | 2 groups × 4 places |
| Junior tennis | Children · boys | 9–16 | Monthly · SAR 600 | 1 group × 3 places |
| Junior girls' padel | Children · girls | 10–17 | 8-lesson pack · SAR 960 | 1 group × 4 places |
| Adult padel · beginner | Adults · mixed | 18–60 | 10-lesson pack · SAR 1,100 | 3 groups × 4 places |
| Weekly private lesson | All ages · mixed | 8–60 | Monthly · SAR 700 | 4 groups × 1 place |
Five programmes on two courts, with capacities from one place up to four, and adults booking their own place.
The Al-Maydan demo academy is a football academy, and it has the screens you'll use for tennis and padel unchanged: the programme card with its ages, places left, payment through a demo gateway, coach attendance and the owner dashboard. Pick any role and go straight in, without an account.
A private lesson and a group of four are charged the same way: the basic package has no monthly subscription, SAR 6.90 including VAT on each successful payment, plus the payment gateway's fee by payment method. There is no fee per court or per coach.
| Subscription | Paid by | The academy receives |
|---|---|---|
| Junior tennis: SAR 600 a month | mada | SAR 586.20 |
| Junior girls' padel: 8-lesson pack for SAR 960 | mada | SAR 942.06 |
An adult player who buys a ten-lesson pack pays once, so the fixed fee is deducted once for all ten lessons.
Create your programmes and their groups: set each programme's age, gender, price and cycle, then add the groups with their days, hours and number of players, and the court number in their name if you like.
Put the link where players will see it: your-academy.midmar.app on your Instagram account or at the club's reception.
Activate payments: open your account with the payment gateway using your commercial registration or freelance document, and then enrolment starts.
No. Midmar is for the academy's lessons and subscriptions: programmes and groups with times and places. Booking the court itself, and renting it to people other than your students, stays outside the system.
Yes. You set each group's capacity, down to one place for a private lesson. Once it is full, no further enrolment is accepted.
Yes. They create their account, book their place in the adults' programme and pay themselves, and from the same account add their children if they wish.
No. The place stays provisionally held for them, then becomes available again after 48 hours if it is not paid.
No. No draws, no match schedules and no level matching. The system is for enrolment, subscriptions and attendance within your academy.
If they cancel within 50 minutes of payment, the full amount is returned. After that they are entitled to a refund within 14 days, unless the academy set a shorter period. Refund Policy
Create your adult and junior programmes and their places, and put the link on your account. You pay nothing to set up, and no fee is deducted before a player's first payment.
