  • Search any neighbourhood, or snap back to your current location
  • Tap a pin to see the time, spots left, skill level and exact venue

Host

Create a game and fill your roster

Post a pickup in under a minute. Choose the sport, set how many players you need, pick the date, time and a searchable address — then let the app bring the players while you warm up.

  • Searchable address so nobody shows up at the wrong court
  • Set player count and an optional gender restriction
  • Flip on Ranked Game to match by skill level

Recruit

A two-sided board for teams and players

Short a shooting guard? Post as a Scout. Looking for a squad to run with? Post as a Prospect. Every open listing is browsable by sport, position, city and rating, so the right people actually find each other.

  • Post as a Scout (you need a player) or a Prospect (you need a team)
  • Filter by username, city, position or free-text description
  • Say exactly what you are after in your own words

Connect

Find other players near you

Search players by country, province and city, then filter to the sports they actually play. Building a regular crew beats rounding up strangers every single week.

  • Location filters right down to city level
  • See each player’s sports at a glance
  • Search by username when you already know who you want

Rate

An optional, per-sport rating system

After a ranked game, rate the people you played with. Ratings feed your overall rating for that sport, and can be used to create or join ranked games that match you with players at your level.

  • Rating is always optional and only applies to Ranked games
  • A separate rating for every sport you play
  • Use ratings to find competitive games at your level

  • A full record of past games with final scores
  • A separate rating card for every sport you play
