Solar-powered beacons lighting the way to pickup football games in your neighborhood
BeaconBall is a network of solar-powered smart beacons installed in community gazebos that illuminate when neighborhood football pickup games are forming.
Our beacons create a real-time visibility system for informal play, solving the problem of kids not knowing where games are happening while activating underutilized public spaces.
A kid rides their bike through the neighborhood on a boring summer evening and suddenly sees a gazebo beacon glowing purple two blocks away - they realize 8 other kids are already gathering for a football game there right now, so they race over to join. The beacon shifts to gold when the game hits full capacity, and a coach driving by spots the talent-filled pickup game and pulls over.
Eco-friendly beacons powered by the sun, installed in existing community gazebos and public spaces.
Purple glow means games are forming. Gold means it's game time! Never miss out on spontaneous play.
Simply head toward the glowing beacon. Easy, spontaneous, and open to everyone in the neighborhood.
Municipalities get data dashboards. Coaches get scouting tools. Parents get peace of mind.
