People use KROO to find pickup football and 5-a-side games nearby, to fill a missing player when a regular drops out an hour before kick-off, and to organise a weekly game without counting heads in a group chat. Search by sport, by day and by how far you want to travel, split even teams, and keep the results afterwards. There are guides on finding and starting a pickup game, splitting even teams and choosing a pitch. Free, in English and Hebrew.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
How do I find sports games near me?
Open KROO and it shows the games happening around you: your regular group's weekly game, and open games that still need players. Filter by sport, day and distance, then tap join. It's a sports app, by the way; nothing to do with Kroo the UK bank.
Why not just organise the game in a WhatsApp group?
Because a chat can't introduce you to players you don't already know, can't give you a reliable headcount when "in", "+1" and "maybe" are scattered across 200 messages, and can't split fair teams. KROO does those three things. Keep the chat for the banter.
How does KROO balance the teams?
Kroo Balance splits the confirmed players into even squads using the ratings their teammates gave them after previous games. Ratings are blind, so nobody sees who scored them, including you, and one bad Tuesday doesn't follow you around. If you disagree with the split, drag a player across.
Is KROO free?
Yes. Finding games, joining, organising, balancing teams and your stats all cost nothing, and there are no ads. To be upfront: an optional paid plan for teams and clubs is planned later. Everything in the free tier stays free either way.
Is KROO on iOS and Android?
KROO is live on the App Store and Google Play. The app runs fully in English or Hebrew, with a real right-to-left layout. See the Hebrew version of this page.
More questions
How do I find a pickup football game near me?
Open the map. KROO shows the pickup and 5-a-side games around you that still have spaces, with the pitch, the kick-off time and how many players are already in. Filter by sport, by day and by how far you are willing to travel, then tap join. You do not need to know anyone in the group first.
Is there an app that picks even teams for 5-a-side?
That is what Kroo Balance does. Once the confirmed list is set it splits the players into even squads using the blind ratings their teammates gave them after previous games, so the sides are matched on how people actually play rather than on who got picked first. Drag a player across if you disagree with the split.
Can I find players to fill a game at short notice?
Yes. If two regulars drop out on the morning of the game, open the spots and KROO shows them to players nearby who play that sport at that level. You get a live confirmed list and a reserve list, so you know whether the game is actually on before you leave the house.
Does KROO work for basketball, padel and other sports?
Yes. Football is the busiest, but the same flow works for basketball, volleyball, tennis and padel, and for running and cycling clubs. Find the session, see who is coming, turn up.
How is KROO different from a team-balancing app?
A team picker only splits a list you have already gathered. KROO covers the whole evening: finding the game, filling the players you are missing, confirming who is actually coming, splitting the sides and keeping the stats afterwards. Balancing the teams is one step of it.
