Yes. You must be 18 or older to create an account and participate in pickup games on AllOutMaine. Anyone can browse the public court directory and game listings, but accounts and game sign-ups are for adults only.
How do pickup games on AllOutMaine work?
Anyone can host: pick a sport, a time, and a court, and the game appears for everyone nearby. Players tap "Join" to claim a spot, the roster fills, and everyone signed up gets a reminder before start time and is checked in automatically when the game begins. If plans change, the host can edit or cancel and players are notified.
What does "checked in" mean on AllOutMaine?
Check-in means a player is physically at a court right now. The map shows live "here now" counts per court, so you can see where there's actually a game before driving over. Check-ins clear automatically after a few hours, and players signed up for a game are checked in automatically when it starts.

Can I organize a private game just for my friends?

A court is missing or its details are wrong. How do I fix it?
