Pickup game etiquette every player should know
Great sports communities are built on trust. A few etiquette habits make Squadd games better for hosts and players.
Be honest about skill
If a game says intermediate, do not join as a complete beginner without asking. Hosts set skill filters so everyone enjoys the match.
Respect time and money
Arrive on time. Confirm cost split before play. If you cancel, do it early so the host can refill the slot on Squadd.
Stay safe with new players
Meet at the booked venue, keep chats in-app when possible, and follow community guidelines. Report issues through Squadd support channels.
