Our verdict

A fit for pickleball, football and volleyball players looking for nearby games, and for club hosts who want free tools for scheduling, RSVPs and tournaments. Trade-offs: court fees are paid outside the app, payment tracking requires the paid plan, and some Google Play reviewers report login and notification problems.

Best for: Pickleball club hosts who need round robins, RSVPs and waitlists

Skip it if: Anyone who needs in-app collection of court or membership fees: Reclub does not process payments

Pros

  • Wide organizer toolset: round robins, RSVPs with waitlists, tournaments, leagues and member management
  • Free for most features; Reclub charges no transaction fees or commissions because it does not handle the money
  • High store ratings: 4.8/5 on the App Store and 4.8/5 on Google Play (about 27.8K reviews)

Cons

  • Payments happen off-platform: players pay the host directly and upload a receipt, which Reclub does not verify
  • Payment tracking and detailed stats require the paid Supporter plan; Reclub treats purchases as final and sends refund requests to Apple or Google
All pros and cons · Who is it for?

More pros

  • DUPR integration for bulk match submission and rating verification
  • Website in 8 language versions (English, Vietnamese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Indonesian, Thai, Japanese, Korean); help center in English and Vietnamese

More cons

  • The free tier shows banner ads at the top of the app
  • Some recent Google Play reviews describe login failures, missing password-reset emails and notifications that open the wrong screen; these are individual reports, not a general finding

Best for

  • Newcomers to a city looking for local sports groups
  • Players who track DUPR ratings and want match results synced

Skip it if

  • People who want a general social network rather than a sports-specific tool

Experience & key features

Reclub, from Reclub PBC, has been on the App Store since 4 August 2018. It helps players find games nearby and helps club hosts run sessions. Store listings describe discovery, meets, club management, competitions and chat, and name pickleball, volleyball and football. Google Play lists 500K+ downloads.

For organizers, Reclub's own page lists a round-robin generator (singles, rotating partners or set teams), RSVPs with automatic waitlists and court assignments, tournaments with brackets and live scoring, and a DUPR integration for bulk match submission. Usage figures in Vietnam are not published by the vendor.

The app is free to download, with banner ads in the free tier. Supporter is sold through the App Store and Google Play: $2.99/month or $29.99/year on the US App Store, and 49,000 VND/month or 499,000 VND/year on the Vietnam App Store. It removes banner ads and adds stats, permanent match history, and banking-detail and receipt tools. Reclub says it is not a payment processor and takes no commission; money moves directly between player and host.

Compared with Meetup, Reclub is sports-specific with scheduling and tournament tools, while Meetup covers many topics. Compared with Strava, Reclub focuses on matching players for group play rather than tracking personal activity. Its value depends on whether local clubs are present on it.

Cancellation & refunds

Privacy

Reclub PBC's privacy policy (last updated 19 October 2026) says it does not sell personal information, except that joining a partner-sponsored event or club counts as consent to share relevant profile data with that partner. GPS location is collected only while the app is in use. Profiles, skill levels and public match history are visible to other users; Private games are limited to participants and the club admin. A deleted account has a 30-day grace period before personal data is removed. The App Store privacy label, self-declared by the developer, lists data used to track you and for third-party advertising, while Google Play says no data is shared with third parties; the two declarations do not match.

Scores

Ease of use

Features
7.8
Why this score

Combines discovery, meets, clubs, competitions, chat and DUPR in one app. No in-app payment processing.

Value for money
8.0
Why this score

Most features are free with no transaction fees. Supporter is $2.99/month or $29.99/year on the US App Store (49,000 VND/month, 499,000 VND/year in Vietnam). The free tier shows banner ads, and Reclub treats purchases as final.

Performance
7.0
Why this score

Updated regularly (version 3.1.0 on 10 Nov 2026). No independent performance data; some Google Play reviews mention notification bugs.

Support
6.5
Why this score

A help center in English and Vietnamese, email and in-app feedback are available. One Google Play reviewer says an email went unanswered for 5+ days (an individual report).

Privacy & security
6.3
Why this score

The policy says personal data is not sold and gives deleted accounts a 30-day grace period. However, the App Store label declares tracking and advertising data use, which does not match Google Play's declaration; profiles and public match history are visible to others, and joining a partner event counts as consent to share data.
