Why Pickup
Built for players who just want to play.
No season commitments, no team tryouts. Open a map, find a game, show up.
Live map game discovery
Every open game pinned on a real-time map. See distance, skill level, spots left, and who's already in — before you commit.
Join in one tap
No forms, no approvals. Tap Join — your spot is reserved, the host is notified, and the group chat opens automatically.
Sport-specific game posting
NTRP minimums for tennis. DUPR ratings and kitchen rules for pickleball. Format chips and house rules for basketball. Every sport gets its own fields.
NTRP · DUPR · Format chips
Court check-in
Tap "I'm here" when you arrive and see exactly who else is on the court right now. Real-time presence — no more "you here yet?" texts.
Scores, records & leaderboards
Keep score live on one shared board — the whole roster watches it update in real time. Build your W/L record across 12+ sports, hold a streak, and climb a ladder built from players in your own city — not a global list.

Keep score from your wrist
A new Apple Watch companion scores every sport courtside — sets, tennis games, deuce and tiebreaks — from the same shared board, so your hands stay in the game and the roster still sees every point.

Message players directly
DM any player from their profile or from a game, spin up a crew chat for your regulars, and challenge someone head-to-head. Leagues let you organise a standing group.

Share moments from the court
Post shout-outs, scores, and clips to your feed — or go live from the court and stream the run straight to your followers.

Know the second a game goes up
Get a heads-up the moment someone calls a game near you, so you never miss a run on your court. Reminders respect your local quiet hours — nothing at 3am.

Recurring games
Post once as a recurring game — Pickup auto-reposts it weekly and keeps your regular crew notified. After a game, “run it back” rebuilds next week’s with the same crew already invited.
Private games & crews
Flip one switch and your run is invite-only — off the map, visible only to people you invite or share the link with. Make a private crew for your office, league, or friend group: one link and everyone lands inside, even before they have the app. Friends without an account can still RSVP as guests.
Invite-only · New
Invite everyone at once
Pick your whole group from contacts and send one text with your game or crew link — the link even survives the App Store, so tapping it after install drops them right where you invited them.

South Florida launch
Be among the founding players.
Pickup is live now in South Florida. The first players in a city define its pickup culture — the courts, the regulars, the crews.

The first players in a city make games happen faster for everyone. Join early and help build South Florida's pickup scene from the ground up.
Live now in South FloridaFounding players get in first
Finding and joining games is always free. No subscription, no paywall, no catch. Pickup earns through venue partnerships — not your wallet.
Skill-matched games only
Every game shows the skill level before you commit — NTRP for tennis, DUPR for pickleball, ability levels for everything else. No more showing up to the wrong game.
For venues & operators
Own a court or facility? Grow it with Pickup.
List your venue, get discovered by active local players, and manage court activity — free for pilot partners.
Turn your facility into a community hub.
Courts, parks, gyms, and complexes use Pickup to fill sessions and grow their player community. Free for venue partners — pilot runs through end of 2026.
Yes. Finding, joining, and posting games is always free — no subscription and no paywall. Pickup earns through venue partnerships, not player fees.
What sports can I play?
12+ and counting — basketball, pickleball, tennis, soccer, volleyball, flag football, running, cycling, padel, badminton, and more. Each sport has its own fields and filters.
Where is Pickup available?
Pickup is live now across South Florida and expanding. Download it today and start posting games in your area.
Do I need a team or a full roster?
No. Pickup is built for open games — join solo, fill your own game one player at a time, and see the skill level before you commit.
Is there an Android version?
Yes — Pickup is on Android, iPhone, and iPad. Get it on Google Play, or search “Pickup Call Game” on the Play Store.
Does Pickup work on Apple Watch?
Yes. Pickup includes an Apple Watch app for keeping score courtside — tap the score from your wrist and it syncs to everyone in the game in real time, on the same shared board as the iPhone app. An Apple Watch is optional; everything works from your phone.
How do I post a game?
Tap the + button, pick your sport, set the court, time, and skill level, and post. Your game appears on the live map instantly and players can join in one tap.
