Family B · Your crew

Enjoyed playing with them? Keep them.

A good futsal night goes to waste if nobody adds anybody. One friend request, and you get that player back for your next match — with an « available now » status that saves you working through your whole contact list.

3 min readNothing neededThe step before groups

In 30 seconds

  1. Profile → Friends. Three tabs : Friends, Requests, Suggestions.
  2. The Suggestions tab offers players you've already played with.
  3. « Add friend » sends a request ; once they accept, you're friends.
  4. Your available friends rise to the top of your list — invite them with one tap.

Four ways to add someone

From the most automatic to the most manual.

  1. Suggestions — the easiest

    The app offers players you've shared a pitch with (« 3 matches together »), players active near you, and people you have mutual friends with.

    You played togetherActive near youMutual friends
  2. From a match card

    Open the player list of a match you took part in, tap a profile, then « Add friend ».

    Do it that same evening, while you still remember the names.

  3. From a conversation

    A player's profile is reachable from the match chat : same button, same effect.

  4. Not on the app yet? Invite them

    Your referral code and invite link can be sent in any conversation. They sign up with your code, and you're connected from the start.

    See the Invite your mates to Gaùcho guide.

What it actually changes

Friends aren't a counter : they unlock concrete things.

Straight away

  • You see who's available now, at the top of your list
  • You can invite them directly to a match that's short of players
  • You can message them privately, end-to-end encrypted

Then

  • You can create a group — members are picked from your friends
  • The group unlocks recurring matches, teams and head-to-heads
  • Your mutual friends become suggestions for other players

The prerequisite nobody mentions

The « New group » screen only offers your friends. With no friends added it stays empty and looks like a bug. That's exactly why this guide comes before the group one.

Stuck?

My request is still pending — can I cancel it?

Yes. Requests tab, « Sent » section, then « Cancel ». They'll no longer see your request, and you can send another one later.

The Suggestions tab is empty

That's normal at the start : suggestions are built from the matches you've played. Play two or three games and the app will start offering players you've crossed paths with. In the meantime, add them from the match card.

How do I remove someone from my friends?

From their profile, « Remove friend ». It's reversible : you can always send another request later. They aren't notified.

Removing a friend or blocking someone: what's the difference?

Removing simply undoes the link : you stay visible to each other and can still meet on a match.

Blocking goes much further : the person no longer sees your messages, can't contact you, and can't join your matches. Keep it for genuinely problematic behaviour — see Messages & safety.

Do my friends see all my matches?

They see your public matches like any player in the area. Private matches from a group they're not part of don't show up for them.

Add the players from your last match.

It takes ten seconds, and it changes every match after that.
