What if the team I join is way above my skill level?

All public matches indicate a target skill level (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced). If you join a match, players expect you to be around that level, so pick honestly to ensure everyone has fun.

Does the team captain have to accept my request?

It depends on the match settings. Some matches are 'Instant Join' where you get a slot immediately, while others are 'Request to Join', where the captain reviews your profile before accepting.

Is it safe to play with people I don't know?

Yes! Futsmandu has a community rating system. You can see the reliability scores of the organizer and players before joining. After the match, you can rate your teammates as well.

What happens if I join but the match organizer doesn't show up?

If the organizer fails to show up and the match cannot proceed, you can report the issue in the app. Your payment will be refunded, and the organizer will face strict penalties.

Can I join with one friend?

Yes, you can reserve multiple slots in the same open match. Just select '2 slots' when joining, and you can pay for both of you at once.

The Problem

Not enough players?

You've booked the ground, hyped everyone up — then two people cancel. Or you just moved to Kathmandu, love futsal, but don't know anyone who plays. Sound familiar?

Canceling a booked futsal court is expensive and frustrating. Playing below full strength is even worse. The old way of finding teammates — WhatsApp groups, word of mouth, Facebook posts — wastes hours and rarely works.

The Old Way

Post in 5 WhatsApp groups → wait → follow up → someone cancels → repeat. 2 hours wasted. Game ruined.
