One app

Everything pickleball, in one place.

Most players run their pickleball life across four or five apps that were never built for it. in2play does the whole job: the games, the Group, the score and the social side, for one sport, for free.

Made for people who actually play.

Everyone here is a pickleball player. Your feed shows posts from players near you and the people you follow, and that’s it. No news, no ads, no everything-else.

Simple enough for the whole court.

Big buttons, plain words, one tap to say you’re in. Whether you’re 18 or 70, you’ll find your way around in a minute.

What it does

Four things, done properly.

Finding or hosting games, Groups, game stats, and the social side. Each one is built for pickleball, and they all talk to each other.

Find a game near you. Or run your own.

Search sessions nearby on a map or a list and join with one tap. Hosting? Set the court, the time and the spots, then share one link to invite anyone, app or not.

  • Filter by skill range, indoor or outdoor, Men’s, Women’s or Mixed
  • Waitlists, reminders and check-in handled for you
  • Hosts can organize without playing
A session page: Zilker Park Courts, Doubles, Wednesday 8 to 10 am, weekly, 3 going and 5 spots open, with the list of who's going and a big I'm in 2 play button.

Built for pickleball, not for fixed team rosters.

A Group is your club night, your league or the four of you who play Tuesdays. Team apps like TeamReach are built for any sport, group or club, from a sports team to a PTA, and sell an upgrade to remove their ads. in2play Groups are built around one thing: open, recurring pickleball sessions. The whole app is free, with no ads to remove.

  • Host a session in the Group and it asks everyone “Who’s in?”, with the waitlist and find-a-sub built in
  • Posts, photos, polls and pinned announcements, with comments instead of a chat that never stops
  • Share one link; people without the app see the session on the web first
  • Private by default; invite with a link or a six-letter code
A Group page with Posts, Schedule and Members tabs, an Invite people link, a weekly summary of games and sessions, and a member's post.

Track your wins. Learn who you click with.

Enter the score before you leave the court and the people you played confirm it. Your record and your streak grow, and so does the picture: who you win with, who you struggle against, and your head-to-head with anyone you’ve played. Don’t worry, all of it is private. Only you see it.

  • Record, win rate and streak by month, year or lifetime
  • Your best partner, your toughest opponent, and every game you’ve played them
  • Private by default; nobody sees your numbers unless you turn on “Share my stats”
A logged game: Doubles, won 11 to 7, confirmed by the players on both sides, shared to the Group, with 30 XP earned for the game, the win and a 2-game streak.

A feed that’s only pickleball.

Post a photo from the court, a question, a win. See posts from players near you or just the people you follow.

  • Posts, photos, reactions and comments
  • Follow the players you like playing with
  • Report or block anyone in two taps
The Social tab: posts from the people you follow, each with reactions and a comment count, and a Post button.

No stress

No rating to chase. Just play.

Casual games are for fun. in2play never gives you a public rating, never asks you to earn one, and keeps your numbers to yourself unless you choose to share them.

Ratings are optional

Already have a DUPR or UTR-P number? Add it to your profile if you like; it shows as self-reported. Don’t have one? Nothing in the app needs it.

No pressure, no pecking order

Logging a game earns XP and the odd achievement, like a video game, not a ranking. A Group can switch on a friendly ladder, but it’s off unless the Group wants it.

Your numbers stay yours

The players in a game see that game, and that’s all. Your record, your partners and your head-to-heads never reach anyone else unless you switch sharing on.

The Stats tab: level 2, Dink Apprentice, 130 of 250 XP, 60 percent win rate, a 3 and 2 record, 3 wins in a row, and a note that only you can see this because nothing here is a public rating.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What is in2play, in one sentence?

One free app where pickleball players find and host games, run their Group, log games and keep their stats, and share with people who actually play.

Is it really free?

Yes. No ads, no premium tier, no paywall. You sign up with a name and an @username, and everything in the app is yours to use.

Do I need a DUPR rating?

No. Nothing in in2play needs a rating. If you already have a DUPR or UTR-P number you can add it to your profile, where it’s shown as self-reported. in2play doesn’t connect to those services or create ratings of its own.

Is it a social network?

Only for pickleball. The Social tab shows posts, photos and comments from players near you and the people you follow. There are no ads and nothing from outside the sport.

What do you do with my data?

As little as possible. Only an approximate area is used to show you sessions nearby, never your exact position. Your games are visible to the people you played them with, and your stats are private unless you share them. You can export or delete your account from Settings in the app, or from the deletion page. The details are in the privacy policy.

Which sports?

Pickleball, only. Doubles, singles, open play, rec night. We’d rather do one sport properly than ten badly.

How do I join a game from a share link?

The host shares the session’s link (it looks like in2play.app/s/…). Tap it: if you have the app, the session opens and you can say you’re in 2 play. If you don’t, the link shows you where to get the app; install it, sign in, then tap the link again. The usual rules still apply, so a Women’s session or a skill range stays as the host set it.

How do I join a Group?

A member shares an invite link or a six-letter code. Open the Groups tab, tap Join with code, and you’re in. Groups are private by default, so there’s nothing to search for until someone invites you.

Can I log games I played somewhere else?

Yes. My sessions has a private calendar for games outside in2play, so your week looks right even when the game wasn’t organized here. Only confirmed in2play games count toward stats and XP.

So. You in 2 play?
