Community Guidelines

Keeping The Baller App safe and welcoming for everyone.

The Baller App is built on trust and respect. These guidelines help ensure everyone can enjoy safe, fun, and inclusive sports experiences. By using our platform, you agree to follow these rules.

Our Guidelines

Be Respectful

Treat all players with respect regardless of skill level, age, gender, or background. Harassment, discrimination, or hostile behavior will not be tolerated.

Safety First

Prioritize safety in all interactions. Meet in public locations, bring a friend when possible, and trust your instincts. Report any suspicious behavior immediately.

No Spam or Solicitation

Do not use The Baller App to promote commercial services, sell products, or recruit for teams outside the platform without approval.
