The sports matchmaker.

Sportflare is a sports matchmaker. It connects people who want to play with the people, courts and times that actually fit them — by sport, by skill level, and by how far you are willing to travel.

The problem it solves is an old one. Finding a game is rarely about motivation; it is about coordination. Group chats go quiet, the one person who always books is away, and a court that was free an hour ago is gone. Sportflare replaces that friction with a single flow: find players, pick a slot, lock the venue.

Sportflare was founded in Sofia, Bulgaria, in February 2026. It began the way most of these things do — as a practical answer to a recurring annoyance among people who played regularly and kept losing games to logistics rather than to opponents.

The first version was built around one question: can you go from wanting to play to having a confirmed game in under two minutes? Everything in the product since has been measured against that.

• Match. Your level is calibrated from real match results, not from a self-assessment. You are matched with players in a band around your level, so games stay competitive in both directions.
• Discover. Courts, pitches and halls near you, with live availability and real prices — so you are choosing between actual options rather than guessing.
• Schedule. Pick an open slot and Sportflare messages everyone, syncs the calendar, and locks the venue. No thread to chase, no one left uninformed.

• Level over reputation. A good game is an even game. Matching is built around skill, not follower counts or how loud someone is in a chat.
• Local first. Sport happens within a few kilometres of where you live. Distance is a first-class filter, not an afterthought.
• Fewer steps. Every extra tap between wanting to play and playing is a game that does not happen.
• Free for players. Creating an account and finding a game costs nothing.

Sportflare covers eighteen sports — tennis, padel, basketball, football, pickleball, running, climbing and more — on one social graph. Play tennis on Tuesday and join a five-a-side on Saturday without rebuilding your circle from scratch.

Conduct matters as much as matching. The community rules that keep games worth showing up to are set out in our Terms & Conditions.

Venues list their courts, availability and pricing on Sportflare, and players book into them directly. For a venue, that means filled off-peak slots and players who arrive matched and expected. For a player, it means the booking is part of the game rather than a separate errand.

Sportflare is based in Sofia, Bulgaria, and is built for players anywhere. Wherever you are, the aim is the same: your city is your playground.
