OPERATING MODEL

The app coordinates. Players make the game.

indieSoccer does not generate matches or supply venues. A game exists because local players choose a place, form a roster, arrive, play soccer, and report what happened.

01

Place

A host selects an actual field, kickoff time, and playing surface.

02

People

Location exposes local options. Friends and friends of friends make them easier to fill repeatedly.

03

Play

Ten rostered players check in near the field and play a two-hour 5v5 game.

04

Record

The host enters the result. Attendance, reliability, and Rated Elo follow the documented rules.
