What is a CourtPal Club?
A CourtPal Club is a sports community. A venue is the place or business offering courts; a tournament is a competition. Use Clubs to find communities to follow or ask to join.
For players: find a club
- Open Clubs and use Search name or city, Sport, Location or Sort to explore the list. More filters includes options such as Verified and ratings.
- Open a club profile to review its information and activities. Similar Clubs suggests other sports communities; courts and venues are separate destinations.
Follow is separate from membership
Sign in and select + Follow to follow a club. Following does not submit a membership request or make you a member. The Following control lets you change that choice.
For players: request membership
- If signed out, select Join Club to sign in and return to the club profile.
- When signed in and not already a member, select Request to Join. The request waits for a club reviewer; it does not automatically activate membership.
- While waiting, the profile shows Request Pending and Cancel Request. Use Cancel Request if you no longer want to join.
- Once you are an active member, your club appears in Your Clubs. A member who is not the owner can use Leave. An owner must transfer ownership before leaving.
For club organizers
Review membership requests using the member-management controls available to your role. You can approve or reject requests. Approval is subject to the club’s membership capacity; a full club cannot guarantee a new member a place.
Example and common question
You can follow a club while your membership request is still pending. These are separate relationships. A submitted request or the Join Club button does not mean you have been approved.
