LocalLeaderboard: Neighborhood Gaming Rankings
A hyper-local social gaming platform that ranks players in specific neighborhoods for casual games (pickleball, disc golf, cornhole), creating community competition and driving real-world meetups.
The Problem
Casual recreational players have no way to discover skill-matched opponents nearby or track their standing against their actual neighbors. Facebook groups and Discord servers are fragmented and don't surface local competition by skill level or proximity. Players either play alone or rely on word-of-mouth to find games.
Target Audience
Casual recreational athletes aged 25-55 playing pickleball, disc golf, cornhole, and lawn games in suburban/urban neighborhoods; organizers of community rec leagues seeking engagement tools.
Why Now?
Pickleball and disc golf are exploding in suburban areas; players are desperate for low-friction ways to find local games and track progress. Neighborhood apps (Nextdoor) have proven local community engagement works—this plugs the sports gap.
What's Missing
Existing solutions are sport-specific (PPA Tour for pickleball) or geography-agnostic (generic leaderboards). No platform combines neighborhood proximity with casual multi-sport ranking. Players manually text for games instead of using an app.
