Pickup Soccer Games in New York City

Thanks to app I have been able to come back to soccer after almost 10 years. Quality pickup games available with friendly individuals and quality indoor and outdoor facilities. Highly recommend this app for players of any skill level.

GoodRec has given me the opportunity to play pickup soccer anytime I want throughout the week. The games are fun and competitive, and I love meeting so many new people.

I moved to New York last year and GoodRec was a easy way to meet people and get some high quality volleyball in. The people you meet here are generally friendly! Costs do add up if you play often though, so GoodRec could improve if there was a membership/bulk purchase option.

I use GoodRec for volleyball in NYC. There’s several sessions every night of the week at all skill levels. The quality control to respect each skill level is pretty good, as hosts can flag players who don’t quite fit the level for a given drop in. For example, I tried an advanced session when I wasn’t quite ready for it a year or two ago and the host flagged me. Then management reached out to me and offered a credit to check out a high intermediate session for free in a very encouraging and respectful way - suggesting that I gain confident on the court and strengthen basic skills. That being said, once I improved over a few months I was able to sign up for advanced sessions so it’s not like they blacklist you or anything. I haven’t attended any clinics yet but they’re always sold out and coached by a guy who played collegiate - I’ve had him as a coach at a different volleyball org and I know from that experience that his clinics are probably valuable. Finally, management is constantly reaching out promoting clinics and other volleyball opportunities, as well as reaching out for feedback which they seem to genuinely respond to and consider. Overall I think the format of the GoodRec drop ins is high quality (14 players and often some people don’t show so it’s easy to do 6s, whereas some other volleyball orgs have 24 people so you’re on for two and off for one throughout the session). Management is responsive and I’ve had positive experiences with all the hosts so far. Glad to have GoodRec in NYC!

Great app to find community! Tons of great venues for volleyball

Awesome app and easy to find local games in NYC area.

Excellent! Thank you! Many games available in my city (NYC), great hosts, games are well organized, best fields, app is straight forward, pics are shared on social media...

At first being told by a friend to download an app to play soccer locally was iffy to me. But after 3 games I can say playing pick-up soccer has never been simpler and connecting with others has never been more fun. Never looking back!

I hope this brings more people together who love to play soccer.

Great app to find soccer games easily if you are traveling or close to your home.

When I moved to NYC a decade ago I wanted to play but infrequent Meetup games made it difficult to get back into it after playing consistently when I was younger. I found GoodRec (formerly JustPlay) during the pandemic and not only did it get me back in, but now I play up to 3 times a week because there are so many great games around me. Highly recommend.

Best place to play soccer and basketball in Pittsburgh! Amazing people and the field is beautiful!

Great app for getting back into volleyball. Has tons of good hosts and great organization great customer support too.

Goodrec delivers health and fun by making playing soccer a click away. Everything is available for you including ball, pinnies and field so you just enjoy the time.

This app helps me to see the days and times of the players are playing. I don’t have to look or ask people of location for soccer spots. It’s really easy to use the app and everyone shows up on time.

While I’m new to this app, I can say say it has helped me greatly to connect with new soccer players! The skyline pitch I usually play at was beautiful and I love that I’m able to continue play the game I love. The app itself is extremely easy to use, it connects you with your host and gives you all the necessary directions to the venue. All around a 10/10 experience. Every soccer player in Chicago should have it!
