Hilltops connects players by interest and proximity. When someone creates a room to find a game, nearby players get notified — and your courts fill up.
How It Works
"Looking for tennis doubles Saturday morning" — they set their intent, your venue is suggested.
Members and nearby users with matching interests see the room. They join instantly or chat to coordinate.
One keen player becomes a group booking. Revenue from players you've never reached before.

What You Get
More than discovery — a platform to grow your community and fill your courts.
Players can follow your venue and get notified about activity, events, and when others are looking to play at your location.
Build a community around your courts
Followers get push notifications for new activity
When someone creates a room to find a game, your venue surfaces as the destination. One player's intent turns into a full court.
When someone nearby is looking for a game, your venue can surface even if they're not a member. Attract new regulars.
Players will have skill-level profiles that influence matching. Better-matched games mean happier players — and more repeat bookings at your venue.

FAQ
Who we accept
Hilltops only works if the partners on it are places where strangers can become friends. We approve venues and creators whose offering is socially compatible.
Regular nights, leagues, classes, run clubs, live music, mixers, open mics, themed sessions — anything the public can attend and meet people at.
Events with a clear, defensible audience. 30+, women-only, sober, beginner-only, sport-specific. Selective is fine when the criteria is explicit and the experience is genuinely social.
Not a fit right now — private-hire-only, table-service-only, or transactional spaces without a regular social offering.
Approvals are manual. We read every application.
