How the link works
From the group chat to full time.
Set the game up like you would in the app: a single match, or winner stays on with three or more teams.
- Share the linkPick the format and teams, and your game opens straight away. Share its link with your group. Each player adds their name, main and other positions, and how strong they reckon they are.
- Pick the teamsAdjust anyone’s level, then balance the teams, pick at random or let captains choose. The fixtures follow, and the teams go back to the chat.
- Kick off and playRun the clock and record goals, assists and cards from your phone. Everyone with the link sees the score live, then a summary of each match and the whole game.
A link is for one game: the game is deleted 5 hours after you make it. For the next game, make a new one, or run your group every week in the app, where every game counts towards everyone’s ratings, cards and awards.

Fair every week
Ratings that come from the pitch, not from memory.
The levels on a game link are your best guess. In the LLS app, everyone gets a rating from what actually happens: results, goals and the post-match vote, by teammates and opponents. The teams balance themselves from it.

FAQ
Game link questions.
Is it free?
Yes, with no sign-up and no app to install.
Who can see the names and scores?
Anyone with the link, so share it only with your group. Game links aren’t listed on search engines, and the game is deleted 5 hours after it’s made. You can delete it sooner from your organiser link. Using a game link means you agree to our Terms and Privacy Policy.
Can I use the same link next week?
No, each link is for one game. Make a new one each time, or run your group in the LLS app, where everyone joins once, every week’s game is called for you, and the goals count towards everyone’s stats.
What does the app add?
The link is a taste. In the app your group joins once, games repeat every week, the sideline backs up every goal, and each game gives everyone a match rating, the day’s vote, awards and a player card that moves with their form. See LLS for organisers.
Let the pitch pick.
LLS is free on iPhone and Android in early access. Start a Club, share the link in your group, and get fair teams from real ratings every week.
