Local rhythm
year-round outdoor play.
Saved-court alerts make more sense here than a broad radius because Tampa players usually know the parks they actually like.

Find your next pickleball game in Tampa.
Kitchen Guru helps Tampa players follow the courts they actually use, see anonymous court activity, and connect after real games.
Tampa Bay
Less guessing before you leave.
Tampa pickleball has the shape of a year-round habit: after-work games, weekend open play, and players moving between public courts across the bay. Kitchen Guru is built for that moment when you want to play but do not want to drive across town just to find an empty court.
The pain
Do not waste the play window.
In Tampa, players often decide between a few parks across a wide metro, so a bad court guess can waste a full evening.
The product
Follow courts, not noise.
Kitchen Guru pings saved courts and keeps stranger visibility at the court-activity level.
Saved-court alerts
Only the Tampa courts you choose.
Kitchen Guru is not built around random radius blasts. Pick the courts that fit your routine, then get a simple signal when that exact place needs players.

Tampa FAQ
Simple answers before you join.
These answers stay intentionally practical: what the app does, what it does not expose, and how court-specific alerts work.
How does Kitchen Guru help pickleball players in Tampa?
Kitchen Guru helps Tampa players follow saved courts, check anonymous court activity, and connect with players they actually meet at public courts. It is built for the local problem that players often decide between a few parks across a wide metro, so a bad court guess can waste a full evening.
Can I choose which Tampa courts send alerts?
Yes. The alert model is court-specific: save the courts you actually play, then use those saved courts for future player-needed and court-update alerts.
Will strangers see my name or exact location?
No. The first layer is anonymous court activity. Names, presence, and direct messages are for mutual friends after both players approve the connection.
Is Kitchen Guru free to join?
The public pages are collecting beta interest. The app starts with a free account path, while Kitchen Guru+ features remain part of the controlled release plan.
Who is Kitchen Guru for?
Kitchen Guru is intended for adults 18 and older who meet at public pickleball courts, want less guessing before they leave, and prefer simple court-level alerts instead of noisy group chats.
