Stop searching.
Start playing.
Sandoo finds your court, your teammates and your level — automatically. The smart way to organize beach volleyball, launching in Berlin.
What you get
Everything a game needs, in one place.
Smart matchmaking
Get matched with players who fit your level and your schedule — no more scrolling group chats.
Dynamic skill rating
A fair, ever-improving rating based on real results — not self-assessment.
Automatic organization
Bookings, waitlists, and confirmations — handled for you, with binding sign-ups.
Integrated payments
Court fees split and settled in the app. No more cash at the net.
Community & profiles
Your stats, your history, your people — all in one profile.
The problem
We built Sandoo because organizing a game shouldn't take longer than playing it.
We know the feeling ourselves: endless WhatsApp groups, mismatched skill levels, last-minute cancellations, awkward cash-splitting at the net.
That's exactly why we're building Sandoo — to digitize the entire process on one platform: smart player matching, fair skill-based ratings, reliable commitments, and payments handled directly in the app.
The process
From open slot to booked court.
And Sandoo takes care of the rest.
Create a game — or get matched automatically
Flying solo and looking for teammates? You and your teammate looking for a spontaneous competitive match? Or your group just needs one more player as a substitute? Log into the app, create your game, or let us match you automatically.
Top up your balance
Add credit once so you don't have to enter your payment details every time — and so we can book the court for you as fast as possible. The only costs: the court fee, plus a small cent fee per successful game for us.
We book the court
Once your match is set, we book the court for you automatically — nothing left for you to do.
Reliability pays off
If someone drops out before the deadline, you get your money back. After that, you don't — that's how we build more commitment and reliability for everyone. The deadline follows the venue's own cancellation policy.
Launching in 2026
We need you!
Sandoo's value grows with every person who joins — it takes a real community for matchmaking to actually work. So we're asking, wholeheartedly: sign up now as a future player, so that the day we launch, there's already a community here strong enough to make the app truly worth using.
Prefer WhatsApp?
Join our WhatsApp group if you'd rather chat with us directly — ask questions, share ideas, tell us you're in, or just help us test early versions. Everyone's welcome.

Frequently asked questions
Sandoo is a platform that automatically organizes beach volleyball games — matching you with the right players, handling bookings and payments, so you spend less time organizing and more time playing.
We're launching first in Berlin, starting at Beach61 and East61. We will go live this autumn.
Logging in and creating your account is completely free. Through the app, you pay for your court as usual, and Sandoo takes care of booking it for you. We also receive a small amount of 1.5% when a game is successfully arranged. We're deliberately using a credit system that you can top up in the app to keep external costs low and support as many payment methods as possible.
Instead of rating yourself, your level is calculated continuously from real match results, using an Elo/TrueSkill-style system — so matchmaking gets better with every game.
Working together is simple — we're not trying to replace any systems you already use. We'd just love your help growing the community, whether that's spreading the word or partnering on events together. It's worth it for you too: the more people play beach volleyball, and the more beginner-friendly it feels, the better it is for your courts. Reach out to Simon at simon@sandoo.fun.
Join our WhatsApp group — that's where we chat directly, answer questions, and share updates with early supporters. It's open to anyone who wants to help us test, has ideas, or just thinks this is a cool project. Join the WhatsApp group.
Who's behind Sandoo
We're Simon and Daniel — lifelong athletes from Berlin, and honestly, just two casual beach volleyball players. We know the feeling: wanting to play more, but never quite finding the right people or the right game at the right time. We got tired of that feeling, so we're building the platform we wish had existed for us all along.

Competitive player · Community Manager
I love myself a good competitive match, preferably outdoors in the sun. I've been playing padel for years, but my enthusiasm for beach volleyball just keeps growing and growing. At Sandoo, I take care of partnerships and — most importantly — you: the players and users. So feel free to talk to me whenever you spot me on a court, or just write me at simon@sandoo.fun!

I love being active, but unfortunately, I don’t get to play volleyball nearly as often as I’d like. As a science and technology nerd, I’m responsible for Sandoo’s development. I’m excited to build something that helps people get together more often, play sports together, and have fun. Feel free to contact me at daniel@sandoo.fun.
