You only play vouched players.
Members come in through people already here. Each hit is rated. The list stays good because everyone on it has skin in the game.

The court is already there -
finding hitting partners shouldn't be the hard part.
01 - The principles
Dedans is an invite-only membership for those playing NTRP 5.0+ tennis in the DMV.
Members come in through people already here. Each hit is rated. The list stays good because everyone on it has skin in the game.
Tell us by Sunday EOD when you're free and the areas you play in. We send you at least 1 hitting partner by Monday morning. No swiping, no chasing, no back and forth. All we ask for is cancellation notice 12 hours in advance.
Zero this week, one, two, three - your call. We aim for at least one hit a week, never more than you want.
Dedans is one city at a time. Members live within 30 minutes of each other. We grow when the list is solid, not when growth is the goal.

Founding-member period
No credit card required
$19.99/month after the founding period - pause or cancel anytime.
04 - Common questions
Membership is invite-only. Two paths in: a current member vouches for and invites you, or we invite you directly and then leverage our community to vet further.
You submit your availability Sunday night. We pair you by NTRP range, play type, geography, and historical compatibility. By Monday morning, you'll have at least 1 hitting partner in your inbox. From there, you coordinate the time and court directly with them.
That's fine - no penalty, no awkwardness, no worries.
Light. One Sunday email asking when you're free that week. One Monday email with your hitting partners. The hit itself is 90 minutes or so on a court.
Free during the founding period (through July 31, 2026). After that, $19.99/month, with your founding rate locked in for life. No credit card required to join - we'll handle billing only when the founding period ends.
Let your hitting partner know at least 12 hours beforehand.
