How it works

Three taps from download to game day.

01

Set up your profile

Pick the sports you actually play and where you're based. That's the whole onboarding — you're in.

02

Find or post a game

Browse the map for games near you, or create your own pickup and set how many players you need.

03

Play, then log it

Show up and play. Afterwards, drop in the score and rate your teammates if the game was ranked.

After a ranked game, rate the people you played with. Ratings add to your per-sport rating and can match you with players at your level.

  • Track your ratings for every sport you play

The regulars are already on it.

Went from playing once a month to three times a week. I just open the map on the way home from work.

Posted a soccer game on a Thursday, had a full roster by Friday. Never touching a group chat again.

The ranked games actually feel even. Found a doubles partner at my level in the first week.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

01Which sports are supported?
Basketball, football, soccer, tennis, baseball, hockey, golf, volleyball, badminton and spikeball — with more added over time. You choose which appear on your profile.
02Do I have to rate people?
No — the rating system is optional. It only comes into play for games marked as Ranked, so competitive players can find others at a similar level.
03What’s a Scout vs a Prospect?
Scouts are looking for a player to fill a spot. Prospects are players looking for a team. Both post to the same board so each side can find the other.
04Does the app use my location?
It asks for location so the map can show games near you. You can decline and still search places manually.

Stop organising. Start playing.
