Pre-launch: ThePickleHub goes live today — bilingual pickleball platform for Asia 🏓

Hey PH community 👋

In ~6 hours, ThePickleHub goes live on Product Hunt (April 21, 00:01 PST). First time a pickleball product launches here from Southeast Asia — wanted to drop a quick intro before the crowd hits.

The one-liner: Bilingual (Vietnamese–English) pickleball platform — tournament management, livestream + replay (via Mux), daily news, community forum. Free for players, free tournament tools for organizers.

Why I built it: Vietnam went from under 1k pickleball players to 500k+ in 18 months. Every tool I tried (Pickleheads, DUPR, pickleball.com) was US-only: US rules, US events, English-only content. So I built what was missing.

What's live today: tournament brackets (single/double elim, round robin, MLP format) with real-time scoring; livestream + auto-replay of matches; bilingual blog (14 EN / 4 VI posts, growing weekly); iOS + Android apps; official digital coverage partner of PPA Tour Asia.

Stack (for the devs): React + Vite + TypeScript, Supabase, Cloudflare Pages, Mux for video, Resend for email, FCM for push. Solo-built in 6 months.

One question for you: if your niche sport exploded 500x in your country over 18 months, what would you wish a platform did for you — as a player, an organizer, or a spectator? Would love to hear before I plan the next 90 days of features.

Thanks 🙏
