How it works
from empty saturday to first serve.
Three steps, in this order — the same whether you already have a group or you just moved to the city.
Set up your sports
Sign up, choose the sports you play, and answer a few quick questions about how you play each one. You get a starting level per sport that settles once you have played a few matches.
Book, or join
Reserve a free slot at a venue near you, then publish it as an open match if you need players. Or skip the booking entirely and join a match somebody else has already opened.
Play, then submit the score
After the match, one player enters the score and an opponent confirms it. Levels update, and everyone rates the fair play — turning up on time, calling it honestly, being decent about it.
Levels & fair play
a level you earn, not one you claim.
Self-declared skill levels are why so many matches are a mismatch. On book&play your level moves with results your opponents have confirmed — so when a match says it fits you, it fits you.
A level for each sport
Your sports are scored separately, because being strong at padel says very little about how you will do on a football pitch.
Results need confirming
A submitted score counts once an opponent confirms it, or after 48 hours with no dispute. Anything disputed goes to our admins.
Fair play counts too
Only players from the same match can rate each other. No-shows and late cancellations show up, so hosts know who they are inviting.
For venues, court owners & coaches
you keep control of your schedule.
book&play brings you players. Your prices, hours and rules stay yours — and so does the money, because bookings made in the app are paid to you directly, the way they always were.

Questions
good to know.
Which sports can I book?
Whatever your local venues offer — tennis, padel, football, basketball, volleyball, badminton, table tennis, squash and more. Venues list their own courts and pitches, so the choice grows as more of them join.
Does book&play charge a booking fee?
No. The app is free for players and we do not add anything to your court time. Court, coaching and tournament fees are set by the venue, coach or organiser and paid directly to them under their own pricing and cancellation rules — worth checking those before you book.
Can I pay in the app?
Not at the moment. book&play handles the reservation and the people; payment happens between you and the venue or coach. Because of that, we never see your card details.
I am new here and do not know anyone. Is that a problem?
That is most of the point. Open matches let you join a game with players at your level without knowing anyone first. Start at a public venue and you will have a regular group within a few weeks.
What happens if someone does not show up?
Report it after the match. Repeated no-shows and last-minute cancellations lower a player's fair-play score, which hosts see before accepting them into a match. Serious or repeated cases lead to suspension.
Which cities is it available in?
We are live in Baku and adding venues continuously. If your club is not on book&play yet, send them our way — setup takes very little time.
Is there an Android version?
The Android version is coming soon.
How do I delete my account?
In the app: Profile → Settings → Delete account. The full step-by-step, including what is deleted and what is kept, is on the delete your account page.
