How it works

From free to playing, in four taps

No scheduling chaos. Set your availability once and let Hitter line up the rest.

  1. Step01

    Set your availability

    Set a window, now or later. Nearby players see you're free to hit.

    The availability sheet in Hitter: start now or later, pick how long, then set availability
  2. Step02

    See who's free

    A live feed of players around you, sorted by skill and distance.

    Hitter's players tab: 100 players, who's available and your top partners
  3. Step03

    Request a hit

    One tap sends a request. They accept, you lock a time and a court.

  4. Step04

    Get on court

    Lined up and confirmed. No threads, no chasing. Go play.

Why Hitter

The fastest way onto a court

Other apps stop at listings. Hitter closes the loop, from “who's around” to “see you at 6”.

  • No more group chats

    Request → accept → play. Bounded, fair coordination instead of a 40-message thread that goes nowhere.

  • Players at your level

    Beginner to Elite, shown at a glance. Find a hit that's a good fit for your level.

  • Built for New Zealand

    400+ places to play across NZ, already mapped. Starting in Christchurch.

From the courts

Made for how NZ actually plays

Interclub is Saturdays. It's the midweek hit that was always hard to organise, and that's the bit this actually fixed for me.
DanielInterclub player
I was nervous about being the worst player on the court. Being able to see who else is a beginner, and just ask them, took all of that away.
JessBeginner
I set myself free for a couple of hours after work and had someone lined up before I'd left the office. No group chat needed.

Why we built Hitter
We got tired of the endless group-chat coordination. So we built the app we wished existed. A simple way to find players and get on court faster.
