Find a place to play
Use the city switcher at the top of the page (next to the logo) to jump to another city. The map also follows you — pan far enough and it switches city on its own.
Each city shows only the sports played there, so the filter chips and search re-scope the moment you switch.
Tap the locate button to centre the map on your position and drop a “you are here” dot. With it on, every place shows how far away it is, so the nearest courts and pitches sort to the top.
Your location stays in your browser to position the map — it is never stored or sent anywhere. Tap the button again to turn it off.
Search finds three kinds of result, grouped so you can tell them apart:
Results are scoped to the city you’re viewing, so you get local ones first.
The chips under the top bar are the fastest way to narrow the map. Tap a sport to show only its places; tap it again — or pick All — to bring everything back.
Only sports played in the current city appear. Hide the ones you never play in sport settings to drop them from the chips and the map.
Each coloured pin is a place to play, tinted by its sport. Tap one to open its details — opening hours, the sports it offers, and any upcoming games there.
From a place you can follow its sport for a notification when a game starts, or post one of your own. Zoomed out, nearby pins gather into clusters — tap a cluster to zoom in.
Join & post games
Games show on the map and on the page of the place they happen at. Open one to see the sport, start time, who’s coming, and the organiser’s note about the level or what to bring.
Joining takes one tap — the organiser sees you’re in, and the game’s messages open up so you can sort out details. If plans change, leave the game and your spot frees up.
Every game you’ve joined or posted lives in your locker under My Events.
Tap the + button on the map to post a game: pick the sport, choose the place — search for one or drop a pin where you’ll meet — set a start time and how many people can join, and add a short note.
People nearby who follow that sport get a heads-up as soon as it’s up. It stays your game: edit the details when plans shift, message the people who joined, or cancel if it falls through.
Step-by-step details are in the full guide to posting a game.
Stay in the loop
Follow a sport and you get a notification whenever someone posts a matching game — no need to keep checking the map.
The quickest way to start is from a place: open it and tap Notify me about future events. For finer control, open Event Tracking in your locker — a basic rule covers a sport wherever it’s played, an advanced one watches only the area around a spot you choose, and every rule can be trimmed to the days and hours you can actually play.
The bell in the top bar opens your notifications: games that match the sports you follow, and news about the ones you’ve joined. Tap one to open the game right there.
The full list lives in your locker under Notifications, split into unread and read.
By default you see notifications while you’re on Omelee — in the bell. Turn on push notifications and you’ll also get a heads-up on your phone or computer even when Omelee is closed, so you don’t miss a game while you’re away.
Turn them on from Settings → Permissions, or tap Enable when Omelee offers it. Your phone or computer will ask you to allow it once.
A couple of things worth knowing:
You’re always in control: switch push notifications off any time from Settings → Permissions, and the in-app bell keeps working either way.
Make it yours
