1. Introduction

Welcome to the Pick Me Up Mobile Application (“Application,” “Platform,” or “Service”). These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Pick Me Up mobile application, including all associated services, features, and content provided through the platform.

By accessing, downloading, registering for, or using the Application, you agree to be bound by these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must refrain from using the Application.

The Pick Me Up platform has been developed to provide a centralized, reliable, and efficient environment connecting sports coaches seeking last-minute or substitute players with athletes seeking flexible playing opportunities, particularly within the travel sports ecosystem.

2. Purpose of the Platform

The primary purpose of the Application is to facilitate timely and efficient interaction between sports coaches, athletes, and parents by providing a digital platform where users can:

• Discover and connect with coaches or players based on location, state, sport, position, skill level, and availability.
• Identify opportunities for last-minute roster placements, substitute participation, tryouts, tournaments, and pickup games.
• Communicate securely through the platform’s messaging functionality.
• Share relevant sports profiles including player statistics, experience, multimedia content, and performance history.

The Application is designed to simplify the discovery process, reduce reliance on fragmented communication channels such as social media groups, and provide a trusted environment for sports coordination.

3. User Accounts

To access certain features of the Application, users may be required to create an account and provide accurate, current, and complete information.

• Athletic position and playing history
• Skill level and experience
• Location and availability
• Photos, videos, and performance statistics

Users are responsible for ensuring that all content uploaded to their profile is accurate, lawful, and appropriate. The platform does not independently verify all user-submitted information and therefore cannot guarantee the accuracy of all profile content.

The Application strives to maintain a safe and youth-friendly environment, but ultimate responsibility for participation decisions rests with users and their guardians.
