For housing societies & apartment buildings

Your building's
cricket auction,
done properly.

Stop picking teams by lottery. Run a real IPL-style player auction β€” residents on the block, owners bidding from their phones, and the whole room watching the price climb on the big screen.

  • Waiting for the lot to open…
  • You cannot bid against yourself β€” the button locks while you hold the bid.
  • You cannot overspend β€” it stops you leaving too little for your remaining slots.
  • Every bid is on the record β€” timestamped, in order, visible to the room.
The evening

How a night actually runs

Six teams, thirty residents, about two hours in the clubhouse.

  1. 1Residents register

    Name, flat, role, batting and bowling style. Two minutes on a phone.

  2. 2Owners get a paddle

    Each team owner receives a private link. It locks to their phone β€” only they can bid for their team.

  3. 3The room fills up

    Big screen on the clubhouse TV. Everyone else watches from their seat or their phone.

  4. 4Player by player

    Each resident is revealed with their record, then the bidding opens. Going once, going twice, hammer.

  5. 5Squads locked

    Every registered player ends the night on a team. Rosters go straight into the building's WhatsApp group.

What you get

Four screens, one evening

πŸ“Ί

The big screen

Project it. Player reveals with full career records, the live price, every team's purse, and a colour flood when the hammer falls.

πŸ”¨

The auctioneer's console

Drive the queue, call the closes, drop the hammer. Undo a misclick, pause the clock, or bid on behalf of someone raising their hand.

πŸ“±

The paddle

One thumb, one decision. Shows the exact next bid, your purse, and a warning before you strand yourself with an unfillable squad.

πŸ“‹

The roster manager

Add residents, upload photos, set tiers. Load the whole building from a spreadsheet in one go.

The things committees ask about

Fair, and seen to be fair

Is real money involved?
No. Purses are virtual β€” IPL-style crores, purely for the theatre. Every owner starts with exactly the same amount, and the platform never touches a payment.
What if two people bid at the same instant?
The server decides by order of arrival, never by phone clocks. The one who missed out is told immediately and shown the next price. A bid is never silently swallowed.
Can someone bid for a team that isn't theirs?
No. Each owner's phone is locked to their team by a private link. The phone cannot claim to be another team β€” the server ignores anything it says about who it is.
What happens to a player nobody bids for?
They move to a later set and are placed by a draft, so every registered player ends the night on a team. The word "unsold" never appears on the screen β€” this is a neighbour sitting in the third row, not a professional watching from home.
What if the Wi-Fi dies?
Every bid is written down the instant it lands. If anything restarts, the auction comes back exactly where it was β€” every sale, every purse, and the live bid on the current player.
