Pickup Sports / Local Teams

Overview

Match with people nearby for pickup basketball, soccer, tennis, etc. Create or browse games by sport, time, and location. Fill slots; when enough join, the game is on. Optional recurring games and team balancing by skill.

The Opportunity

People want to play but finding a game is ad-hoc (group chats, word of mouth). Gyms and parks have underutilized capacity. A discovery + booking layer could make pickup sports as easy as finding a restaurant.

Approach

Auth + profiles (sports, skill level, home area) + listings (games) + matching (nearby, same sport, skill range) + light bookings (join = reserve slot). First slice: create game + list + join.

Focus Areas

• •Game discovery by location/sport
• •Skill-based matching
• •Join/leave and slot management
• •Optional team balancing
