FAQ

Questions, answered.

  1. What to expect on a night

    Show up. The draw's set, the courts are booked, the balls are new, and there's a coach on court keeping the standings. About ninety minutes of play, then drinks and apps with your group. Bring a racket, or rent one when you arrive. That's the whole list.

  2. How do the groups work? Do I play with the same people every week?

    Yep. You're placed in a group of around twenty and that's your group for the season — same people every week, which is rather the point. Groups are balanced for level and for good company. After four weeks, a new season starts and the groups shift.

  3. What is the price for a season — and does it renew?

    $440 for the season — four nights, all-in. Prime courts reserved every week, a coach running the night, drinks and apps after, and our own corner of Ultra Miami.

    Nothing renews on its own; when the next season forms, you'll get an invitation.

  4. What's Americano?

    A rotation format. Partners change each round and points are tallied to each player, not a team, so over a night you play with most of your group. Nobody gets stuck carrying anyone.

  5. What level do I need? How do I know my level?

    A 2.0 on the Playtomic scale is the minimum — you can return the ball and keep a rally going. Don't know your level? The level guide sorts it out in about a minute. Be honest; level is a factor in how we balance the groups.

  6. What happens after I request a spot?

    Every request is read within three days. If there's a group with your name on it, you'll get an invitation to the launch night with a confirmation page; if not, we'll say so. On the confirmation page you'll also see where you can sign up for Season One.

  7. Can I come with a friend or a partner?

    Yep. Have them request too. When you sign up for a season, there's a line for anyone you'd want in your group, and we'll place you together where we can.

  8. What if I miss a week?

    Life happens. A few days before each night you'll get a quick attendance check — just tell us. No makeups, no substitutes; the season carries on and you pick it back up the week after.

  9. Where and when is Season One?

    Four Tuesdays at Ultra Miami, 7pm, starting October 27. Preview the season at the launch night on October 13. First of many — more seasons and more nights as we go. Not this season? Keep me posted and we'll tell you when the next one forms.

  10. Who's behind Belmar?

    Kat Wilson, a Miami-based founder who typed 'need a 4th' one too many times. She built and sold her last company, did her MBA at Chicago Booth, and spends her days doing strategy at Zillow.

  11. What's the launch night?

    A preview of Season One, Tuesday October 13 at Ultra Miami — courts, a coach on court, drinks and apps, complimentary for everyone invited. Request a spot and you'll hear back within three days.
