I built this because I was tired of texting the same 10 people every week asking who was free. Now I just post the game and whoever wants to run shows up. You can post a one-off game, or set it to repeat every week so you're not rebuilding it from scratch each time. If you want to run something bigger, like an actual tournament with brackets and standings, you can do that too — teams sign themselves up, nobody's ranking anyone to decide who gets to play. You can see who's actually coming before you show up, talk to your team or the group in the app, and there's a spot to rate courts and gyms so people know which ones actually have good games going. No ads, nothing to pay for right now. Just trying to make it easier to find a game.
