The problem

Finding a good run shouldn't be this hard.

Group chats go quiet. Gym schedules are buried. You drive across town and nobody shows. Basketball is everywhere, but it's scattered — and that's the part LaceUp LIVE fixes.

  • No more guessing whether a run is actually happening
  • See the format, skill level and admission before you drive
  • Find hoopers near you instead of hunting group chats
  • Hosts get real tools instead of a spreadsheet

How it works

Discover. Join. Play. Connect.

Four steps from opening the app to walking onto the court.

Step 1

Discover

Open the app and see basketball runs near you — time, place, format and who's playing.

Step 2

Join

Join instantly, request a spot, or play by invitation depending on how the host set up the run.

Step 3

Play

Show up and hoop. Real courts, real runs, real players in your area.

Step 4

Connect

Rate the run, build connections and come back for the next one.
