How pickup works

  1. Find or start a game

    Browse by sport, day and distance, or post one at your local park.

  2. Request a spot

    Jackson asks to join; his mom Kelly approves with one tap.

  3. Show up and play

    Roster, updates and the exact spot — in the family schedule, not a group chat.

Requires a free account to play

  • You choose who plays

    Open, request-to-join or invite-only.

  • Roster size & waitlist

    Open spots fill themselves when someone drops.

  • Protected details

    Exact address and full roster stay private until a player joins.

  • Weekly series

    Set it once, play every Sunday.

  • Level & ages

    Tag beginner to competitive, and the age range.

  • Invite friends

    Share it with the families you know.

Why we keep pickup free

The neighborhood game built generations of athletes, and it's disappearing. When it's easy to play, kids play more — off their phones, with their friends, for the love of it. That's the whole point.
