Frequently Asked Questions

Can-I-Play is a community platform for men 35+ who want to get back into sport without the pressure of a full season, weekly training, or long-term commitment. Think of it like a community notice board — someone posts a game, and anyone keen just shows up and plays. Simple as that.

Anyone 35+ who loves sport but life — work, family, bad knees, the usual suspects — has got in the way. You don't need to be fit. You don't need to be skilled. You just need to want to get out, have a run around, and meet like-minded blokes.

The platform is free to join. When a Host posts a game, there may be a small per-session fee — think of it as chipping in for the game, not a membership. It covers:

• ⚽  Equipment — balls, bibs, cones
• 🛡️  Insurance and public liability
• 📍  Venue and ground costs
• 🎉  Our annual end-of-year get together

No ongoing commitment beyond that session.

Absolutely not — that's the whole point. Show up when you can, sit it out when life gets busy. No one's taking roll call. The platform works around your schedule, not the other way around.

You'll be notified by 4 hours on the day if a session is cancelled — weather, low numbers, whatever the reason. If a session fee was paid, a refund will be processed within 48 hours. No drama.
