The computer has evolved and advanced significantly providing smartphones that allows us to do astonishing things. In addition, social networks have provided new means of connection and communication between our friends, family or even strangers. This has provided many new opportunities for people that do not know one another to connect through the internet. Connecting with stranger as become a norm for networking as proven from LinkedIn, with over 760 million users around the world.This project aims to develop a mobile application called “Sport Net”, in which it allows people with different sports interests to genuinely connect with one another and become friends to get together to play a sport. Due to the dilemma of wanting to exercise through your own favourite sport but having insufficient player to start a game, people tend to start giving excuses to stop exercising. With this application, it helps you connect with people and schedule a game to play and possibly share new knowledge with one another. The implementation of this project has been done by using Android Studio in which multiple Java classes has been created to provide different function or features in the mobile application. The facilitation of accounts and management of user database will be on Firebase and each user will have their own unique account being created for connecting with others. In Summary, the objectives of the projects were met successfully for the first release. However, there are still room for improvement in future.
