Your profile is what lets other players find you and lets Matchely suggest opponents at your level. A wizard walks you through it the first time.

​
The steps

1

Name

Your name as people know you on court.
2

Gender and date of birth

Used for categories and for gender-based rankings.
3

Your sports

Pick the ones you play. You can have several, and each carries its own level — nobody plays tennis and volleyball at the same level.
4

Your level in each sport

Nine levels, from Beginner to Professional, each with a description of what it means. Matchely turns your choice into a number from 1 to 99.
5

City

This is what puts you in the local showcase and in your region’s rankings.
6

Phone

So organizers and partners can reach you. You decide who sees the number.
All of these steps are required — including gender, date of birth, and phone. And the level is required for every sport you added: if you listed three and rated two, your profile is still incomplete and no competition will accept your entry. It is the number-one cause of “the Join button does nothing”.

​
Your username

It is generated automatically from your name, and it is your profile’s address.

​
Photo and cover

The photo helps more than you would think: on court, people recognize faces. The cover is the banner at the top of your profile.

​
Your level moves on its own

The number you picked is only a starting point. Your matches feed the calculation, and the number shown on your profile is updated once a day.
Redoing the self-assessment overwrites the calculated number, and removing a sport from your profile erases its rating history. Think twice before doing either.

Rating and ranking

Where each number comes from.

Public profile and privacy

What shows to whom, and how to turn it off.
