About NexSport

Local sport, organised properly

Community sport breaks down on two problems: finding enough people, and finding the right people. NexSport solves both. We map every player to a rating derived from a structured skill assessment, then keep that rating honest with an Elo model that reacts to real results.

Around that sits everything an organiser actually needs — geo-ranked discovery, one-tap match creation, automatic team balancing, and a performance layer that turns your history into insight instead of a spreadsheet.

  • No more endless group chats to fill a single slot
  • Skill-aware matching so games stay competitive
  • Transparent ratings that update after every result

How it works

From sign-up to first fair game

Ten steps from registration to an updated rating — the platform handles the hard parts in between.

1

Register / Login

Create your profile, set your city, sports and availability.

2

One-Time MCQ Assessment

Experience, fitness and game knowledge questions score your baseline.

3

AI Skill Verification

Match images and results are verified before your rating is issued.

4

Seed Elo Rating

Your assessment maps onto a starting Elo so you never play unrated.

5

Create or Join Match Room

Set sport, ground, GPS location, time, slots and skill level — or join an open room.

6

Nearby Players Notified

Players in range get pinged and fill the room; otherwise it waits for more.

7

Room Closes Automatically

Once full — or one hour before start — the room locks in the roster.

8

Balanced Teams Created

The AI greedy zig-zag algorithm splits the roster into evenly matched sides.

9

Play & Upload Results

Play the match, then upload the result, statistics and peer feedback.

10

Dynamic Elo & Profile Update

Ratings, match history, performance and fair-play score refresh instantly.

Under the hood

The maths that keeps games fair

No black boxes. Every ranking and pairing decision comes from logic you can read.

MCQ Assessment

A weighted questionnaire on experience, frequency and competitive history scores your baseline ability.

score = Σ (answerWeight × questionWeight)

Seed Elo Formula

Assessment score maps onto a starting rating so new players never enter a match unrated.

seedElo = 800 + (score / maxScore) × 700

Dynamic Elo

Ratings move after every result, scaled by opponent strength and a confidence-based K-factor.

R' = R + K × (S − E), E = 1 / (1 + 10^((Ro−R)/400))

Greedy Team Balancing

Players are sorted by rating and assigned to whichever side is currently weaker, minimising the gap.

sort desc → assign to argmin(teamTotal)

Haversine Distance

Great-circle distance between you and every open match, so 'nearby' actually means nearby.

d = 2r · asin(√(sin²(Δφ/2) + cosφ₁cosφ₂sin²(Δλ/2)))

Leaderboard Ranking

A composite score blends rating, recent form and reliability so consistency is rewarded.

rank = 0.6·elo + 0.25·form + 0.15·reliability

"Team balancing solved the one thing everyone argues about. Two sides, near-identical ratings, nobody complaining before kickoff."
