CSFC: Pickup Football
Pickup football near you
Only for iPhone
Free · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
CSFC is the easiest way to book football pitches and get into a game.
Find pitches near you, see open matches, and join with a tap. Whether you want a
casual 5-a-side or a regular fixture, CSFC connects you with players and venues so
you can spend less time organising and more time playing.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
- Discover football fields and venues near you
- Browse upcoming matches and events, and join open games
- Reserve your spot — and join the waitlist when an event is full
- Pay securely for your booking, or cover a friend's spot
- Chat with other players in each event, with mentions and reactions
- Build your player profile and shareable player card
- Manage your bookings, credits, and account in one place
HOW PAYMENTS WORK
Bookings are paid securely through Stripe. Credits you buy are used to pay for
real-world pitch bookings — physical field time — not digital content.
Get off the group chat and onto the pitch. Download CSFC and play more football.

1.1.5 5d ago

• The players bar counts spots already paid for, so the bar and the count agree.
• Bringing friends no longer charges for spots that have just gone.
• Joining a waitlist is free, and no longer shows a price beside the button.
• Players who go by a username are called by it, not "Unknown user".
• Help opens from the game you are stuck on, not only from your account.
1.1.1 Sep 10
• Pitches open on a map now. Each pin says how many games are on this week.
• A new CSFC: Fields, Games and Chats redrawn, with a native bottom bar.
• A game's page says the cost, who is playing and if it will go ahead.
• Joining is one panel: the total, what your balance covers and what is left after.
• Bringing friends starts with how many, and finds them by name.
• Your player card is a season now — pitches, teammates, tier.
• Chats follow the last message, and links in them open.
1.1.0 Sep 2
• See whether a game will happen — each game shows how many have joined, how many spots are left, and how many more players it needs.
• New help centre, reachable from any game and from Account → Help.
• Tapping a free spot now joins you; booking for a friend comes once you're in, so nobody pays for an invite by mistake.
• Card checkout shows what you're paying and how long your spot is held.
• Running games for CSFC? Start and finish them next to check-in.
1.0.9 Aug 20

• Kick-off times now show the pitch's local time, wherever you are.

1.0.8 Aug 19
Check in by scanning a QR code
The organizer shows a check-in QR at the pitch. Scan it with your camera and you're marked as present — no more working out who actually played after the game. The code refreshes every 30 seconds, so it can't be passed around to people who didn't turn up. Organizers get a live check-in screen and can still mark someone by hand if their phone is dead.
Invite friends, earn rewards
Every player has a personal referral code and link (Account → Invite friends). Friends who sign up with it get 10% off their first game. Once they've actually played it, you earn a one-off share of what they paid — 10% to 20%, growing with the number of friends you bring. The page shows how many you've invited, how many have played and what you've earned, and we'll notify you when someone uses your code and again when a reward lands on your balance.
Know the discount before you pay
The join button shows what you'll actually be charged with the full price struck through beside it, and the payment summary names the discount rate instead of just showing an amount off.
Also in this release
• Fixed: confirming your email from an invite link could leave you stuck on the "Check your email" screen even though you were already signed in.
• Event, invite and check-in links now open straight in the app instead of the browser.
• Playing preferences moved to their own page in Account.
• A new animated launch screen — the CSFC crest builds itself up as the app opens.
• The bottom navigation bar now lines up with the rest of the screen.
1.0.7 Aug 11
Chat, finally done right — swipe any message to reply, or hold it for a proper menu: react, copy, reply, edit or delete. Deleted messages leave a placeholder so replies still make sense, and you can see when someone is typing.
No more "Anonymous Player" — if we never got your name when you signed in, we now ask for it right after you join a game, and remind you on your Account screen. You can skip it and still play.
The waitlist actually tells you when a spot opens — in your language, and the game shows a "spot open" badge in the list even if you missed the notification. It disappears the moment someone else takes the spot, so you're never sent to a game that's already full.
Your money is safe if a game is called off mid-payment — the charge is stopped where possible, and otherwise returned to your balance straight away.
Payments is one clear list — no duplicated rows, no empty entries, every payment dated, and it loads as you scroll.
Also in this update:
• Apply to become an organizer from your Account
• Confirming your email opens the app and signs you in, with a Resend button when a link has expired
• The day filter only shows days that actually have games
• Pick any nationality — all of them, searchable, with flags
• Tell us how you like to play, so we put on the games people actually want
• A weekly notification with the matches lined up for the days ahead
• Unread chat messages now show on the app icon

notifications even if another account was previously signed in on it, and the
notifications toggle reflects your actual system permission.
• Stability and polish.
1.0.1 Jun 29
