# properties

The local player’s properties that matchmaking rules used to find the players with some additions.

```
var properties: [String : Any]? { get }
```

## Discussion

This property is similar to the [`GKMatchRequest`](/documentation/GameKit/GKMatchRequest).[`properties`](/documentation/GameKit/GKMatchRequest/properties) property but with some additions that Game Center may add. For example, if you add team rules to your rule set, use the `gc` and `team` keys to get the name of the player’s team.

```swift
// Get the local player's team assignment.
properties = match.properties
team = properties["gc"]["team"]
```

For more information, see [Matchmaking rules](/documentation/GameKit/matchmaking-rules).
