## What is CourtRun?

CourtRun turns every public basketball court into a live community.

See exactly who's hooping where, right now. Open the map, scan the area, and find pickup runs the moment they start. Built for hoopers covering real public courts.

LIVE COURT MAP
• Every public outdoor court on a sharp dark map
• Courts light up the moment hoopers check in
• Tap a court for facility info — hoop count, lights, full street address
• Filter by Active Now, Competitive, Casual, Lights, or your Favorites
• Pinch to zoom, tap to recenter on your current location

CHECK IN AND BE SEEN
• Check into a court in one tap
• Set your status: Just Arrived, Looking for a Game, Shooting Around, 1v1, or Full Run
• Other hoopers see you live the moment you're there
• Check out when you're done — no friction

CHALLENGE FOR POINTS
• Send a game invite to anyone checked in at your court
• 1v1: play to 11, 16, or 21
• Team games (2v2, 3v3, 5v5): play to 21 or higher
• Both players must agree on the winner — that's the only way points count
• Disputed results award nothing. No fake wins, no inflated scores.
• 5-minute cooldown after logging a result keeps the board honest

LEADERBOARD
• Climb the points board with every confirmed win
• Track your W / L record and win rate
• See where you rank vs. every hooper in your area

TEAMS + TEAM CHAT
• Form a crew with name, color, and tagline
• Invite players from your friends list or anyone at your court right now
• Built-in team chat for planning runs without leaving the app
• Captain controls — pass the crown, kick, or disband

FRIENDS
• Add hoopers by handle
• Pending requests, sent requests, accepted friends
• Friend chips suggested in every game and team invite

ADD A COURT
• Found a court we don't have? Submit it
• Drop a pin on the map, snap a photo with the camera or pick from your library
• Admin reviews each submission. Approved courts go live for everyone.

POLISHED, PRIVATE, NATIVE iOS
• Built with SwiftUI and MapKit for buttery 120 Hz performance
• Dark mode native, basketball-orange accents throughout
• Real privacy: account data lives only on your device. Passwords are salted, stretched with SHA-256, and stored in the iOS Keychain.
• Location use is optional — only when you tap the recenter button
• No tracking, no analytics SDKs, no ads

This is the basketball app Philly and Bucks deserve. Find the run. Join the game.
