Connect with Athletes Around You

Blitz is a social platform that helps users discover and connect with local athletes across different sports and skill levels. Whether it's running, soccer, yoga, or hiking, users can find like-minded partners nearby, view profiles, and plan activities together. The project explores how shared sports interests can bring communities together through seamless discovery and coordination.
Finding training partners or teammates who share your sports interests and are nearby can be challenging. Most people want to stay active but lack the social connections that make fitness enjoyable and consistent. Traditional social networks don't solve the discovery problem for local sports enthusiasts.
A location-based social platform specifically designed for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Blitz matches users based on their sports interests, skill levels, and proximity, making it easy to find workout partners, join pickup games, or discover new activities.
Pranav demonstrated understanding of marketplace dynamics, community building, and the power of location-based services. The project showcases skills in user acquisition, engagement design, and building features that drive network effects.
