Backyard Comp keeps score, runs the bracket, settles the disputes and cuts the highlight reel — so you can actually play.
Free to use · Works on any phone · Nothing to install
Three ways in
Same competition engine behind all three — the difference is how much of the weekend you want to spend organising instead of competing.
Do it yourself
Everything you need to run a proper competition in your own back yard. Open it, share the link, start playing.
Done for you
We turn up with the kit, set the whole thing up, referee every round and keep it moving. You host; we handle the competition.
Come to us
We run competition nights at bars for people who take winning unreasonably seriously. Turn up alone or bring a team.
Inside the app
One link. Everyone opens it, picks their team, and it stays in sync all weekend.
Points go in as they happen and the table reorders itself. No spreadsheet, no whiteboard, no arguments about who is actually winning.
Brackets, rounds and round robins, drawn properly. Pick a format and the app works out who plays who, and when.
Everyone posts from their phone as it happens. Reactions, callouts and the running commentary that makes it worth remembering.
The weekend cut together at the end — scores, photos and the best moments, exportable as a video to send round the group chat.
Five ways to end an argument or decide who goes first — a coin, a weighted wheel, a reaction duel, Odds Are and hidden rock-paper-scissors. Every result is sealed before anyone plays, and any phone can check the seal.
22 games to start — cornhole, beer pong, flip cup, kan jam, spikeball and more, each with real rules and the right format already set. Add your own; it tracks who has won what, year after year.
How people get in
Nobody signs up, nobody makes a password, nobody installs anything. You hand out codes and people are in.
Get in touch
Tell us roughly when, roughly how many people, and where — we will come back with what it would take.
Backyard parties, work away-days, stag weekends, bar competition nights.
