Frequently asked questions

Do I need to join a team or a season?+

No. Game On is for drop-in games — no season, no team commitment. Just find a game and play.

How much does it cost?+

Game On is free to use. Some hosts charge a small fee for court or venue costs, shown on each game. Use the Free games filter to see only free ones.

How do I know a game matches my skill?+

Every game lists a skill level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced) and how competitive it is. Player ratings and reviews show whether past games matched their label.

What if a game doesn't fill up?+

The player meter on each card shows how many spots are filled. You'll be notified if a game is almost full, changes, or is cancelled.

Can I leave a game after joining?+

Yes — open the game and choose Leave. Please leave early so someone else can take your spot; attendance affects your reliability score.

What is the reliability score?+

It's the percentage of games you joined and actually attended. Hosts and players use it to trust that people will show up.

What do I get with Game On+?+
