New players get a download link; existing players get a notification. GAMES Set the time, venue, min and max players, and the pitch cost. Join to take a spot. If the game doesn’t fill in time, it auto-cancels and card payments are refunded. PAY Players pay their share in the app with Apple Pay or card. The organiser gets the pitch total to their UK bank. Free games skip payment. RESULTS Enter the score, vote Man of the Match, and watch a simple rating update after each game. History stays in the group so nobody is arguing from memory.
