How it works?

I am an organizer
"Less hassle, more football. Pickup Sports is your automated manager."
Why should I leave our WhatsApp group?

End the chaos: WhatsApp is for chatting, not organizing. Here you have a clear lineup, waiting list, and match history all in one place.

Automatic Substitute: Set a capacity (e.g., 10 people). If the 11th person joins, they are a substitute. If someone from the main squad drops out, the app automatically sends a notification to the first substitute and moves them into the game. You don't have to call anyone.

How do I handle payment for the pitch?

No "Sorry, I forgot my wallet": You can insert your account number directly into the event (the app remembers it) and a QR code is generated. Every player sees it and pays in two clicks. Never worry about collecting money again.

Overview: See who is signed up, who is late, who is bringing a +1. It's simple and clear.

What if we are missing people?

"Open Game" feature: If you can't fill the spots with your own group, switch the event to "Open". Players nearby who are looking for a game will see it on the map and can join. Who knows, maybe you'll click and find new regulars for your squad!

How do I ensure a balanced match?

Smart Balancing: No more arguments like "you have a stronger team". No more 21:3 scores that aren't fun for either side. The app knows how good everyone is and, with one click, suggests a fair team split so the match is exciting until the end.

Can I have more admins in the team?

Yes: You can appoint up to 3 admins who can create events, invite people, and manage the team when you're on vacation.

I am a player
"Play, rate, level up. Show that you are the Man of the Match."
How do ratings work?

After the match, you simply rate the performance of everyone on the pitch on a scale of 1 to 5 stars. You also choose one person who deserves the "Man of the Match" award.

It's anonymous: No one will see how you rated others, nor how they rated you.

Your average: The next day after the match, you get a summary rating (e.g., "Yesterday you played at 4.2 stars"). These stats are added to your profile, so you see your long-term progress.

Ratings have fair weight: If a veteran with tons of games and high ratings gives you a good rating, your average jumps much more than if a newbie rates you.

Do I have to rate others?

It's fair: It's not mandatory, but it's the foundation of the community. Rating takes 10 seconds. If you're not sure about someone, you can skip them. The more you rate, the more accurate the stats are and the better the team balancing works.

What do I get by using the app?

Stats and Ego Boost: You'll have it in black and white how good you are. Collect "Man of the Match" awards, track your history and average rating. Find out how you really stand. Show off your performance to others. Or figure out what you need to work on.

Gamification and Rewards: For playing and good ratings, you collect XP and level up your profile. You unlock rewards, profile upgrades, or even discount codes from our partner shops. You just do what you love - play football, and get a discount on cleats as a reward. Sounds good, right? (Discount codes start arriving in summer 2026)

I don't have my own group, can I still play?

Sure: Check the map in the app. You'll see "Open Events" nearby – teams missing a player and looking for reinforcement, or groups that like playing open Pickup games. Just sign up, or ask the organizer for info in the app.

The event is already full, can I still play?

Substitutes: Sure, if the event is already full, the app will ask upon signing up if you want to join as a substitute. If you are signed up as a substitute and someone ahead of you drops out, the app immediately sends you a push notification and you know you're taking the pitch!
