Getafinder is a [mobile matchmaking app](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheers-dating-app) that is designed to connect male and female fans of the Madrid, Spain-based football team Getafe. This app aims to get fans of Getafe to hook up and produce Getafe-supporting babies.

Despite playing in Spain's top division, Getafe has a small fanbase and has a hard time getting fans to fill up its stadium because the city of Madrid is home to two world-class teams in [Real Madrid](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/virtual-platform) and Atletico Madrid. It is hoped that the Getafinder app, which uses a [Tinder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-friendly-dating)-esque swipe-based interface, will help connect Getafe-supporting singles who could then help create the next generation of Getafe fans.

The app only works in proximity of Getafe's stadium in the southern suburbs of Madrid, ensuring that trolls from other teams can't hijack this important population-boosting project.
