PITCH UP — Join the game | Coming soon to Cape Town

The struggle is real

The game shouldn't be this hard

If you love football but hate the admin, PitchUp is built for you. We're killing the four things that ruin pickup soccer.

Can't find local games

You rely on word of mouth and the same dead WhatsApp group that never fills.

Games fall apart

One no-show short and the whole match is cancelled. Frustrating for everyone.

Booking a pitch is a mission

No single place to see which venues are free, what they cost, or how to reserve.

No way to match skill

You end up in games too chilled or way too intense. Never quite the right level.

How it works

From boots-on to ball-rolling

Discover, join, play. PitchUp keeps the bit you love and deletes the bit you don't.

Good to know

Questions, answered

We're in beta and launching first in Cape Town. Leave your details above and you'll be among the first to get access.

Phase one is the Cape Town metro, expanding across the Western Cape, then nationally to Johannesburg, Durban and Pretoria as the community grows.

Finding and joining games is free. Venue bookings are paid to the venue at launch (e.g. R85/player for a 5-a-side), with secure in-app payments coming later.

PitchUp is built for both iOS and Android. The Google Play and App Store listings are on the way — tap "Coming soon" above and we'll notify you when they go live.

Absolutely. We're onboarding launch-partner venues now. Sign up above and mention you're a venue, and our team will reach out.
