Create Leagues

Once membership sign ups are completed, ClubSetup will help you create all of your divisions, teams, and rosters for your organization.

As teams are entered, ClubSetup automatically creates team web pages. As rosters are entered, ClubSetup automatically creates individual player web pages.

Finally volunteers are conveniently assigned their respective roles (coach, team parent etc…) and given the appropriate website permissions.

Customize the look and feel of your organization website

With ClubSetup you can create a professional-looking website in a few hours with ready-made templates. Youth sports organizations and clubs are each unique that is why don't want some cookie-cutter, one-size-fits all website.

ClubSetup provides you with a website you can quickly update yourself without going through busy and costly web consultants for every little change. In addition to having a great looking website, you'll also have full control.

Site administrators will be able to add new pages, upload photos, change text, move pages, change your site style, and so much more. All of this can be done with "point & click" ease thanks to ClubSetup’s next generation technology.

Volunteer Sign Up

With ClubSetup, you can easily recruit coaches, team parents and other volunteers during the online registration process. Since much of the volunteer work can be done from any computer, you’ll find many more people raising their hands to help.

Your organization administrator can easily assign these roles, giving appropriate site access instantly.

Widgets

A widget is a small application block that you can freely find available from companies like ESPN, Google, Yahoo or any major professional sports organization. These free widgets snap into ClubSetup’s framework like a Lego.

Examples of widgets you can use with ClubSetup include maps, latest sports news, music, video, weather, games, and so much more.

Widgets allow you to personalize your website and deliver the information you want. As a result, your site will always remain on the cutting edge.

Fund Raising

ClubSetup provides a Web-based fund raising system that simplifies the process of collecting money from groups of people. We make this process quick, easy, and secure. Organizers are provided with numerous ways to get the word out about their fund raising effort.

The ClubSetup fund raising system has no fixed fees and zero start-up costs. Unlike other online fund raising services, 100% of your donation goes to your organization.

Document Repository

An easy to use document and image repository and archive of prior activities make it easy for new volunteers to pick up where last years volunteers left off.

Hosted Platform

There is no hardware to buy or maintain, as the ClubSetup solution is hosted. All you need is a web browser with an Internet connection. No more worrying about how much disk space you are using. ClubSetup uses the latest hardware, software and communication platforms to ensure lighting performance for your user community.

Website Publishing

ClubSetup provides easy to use website publishing tools that make it simple to change website navigation and content. You can add pages, change content, upload images, add RSS feeds and advertising links as often as you want.

Search

ClubSetup provides powerful and convenient search options. With keyword search, your registered users may quickly type any text (for example 'Johnny Smith' or 'Dolphin Swim Team') and see all matching records. From there you simply click on the link and are directed to that page.

Scheduling and Game Results

With ClubSetup you are now able to get your league schedules and results out in minutes instead of days! Just enter your locations, teams, game times, and start date. Once the schedule is finished it is automatically published to the respective team’s calendar and you can “one click” to export the schedule to a PDF or CSV format.

Email and text message notifications can be enabled for game or practice reminders and changes for members of each team.

Once results are entered, the respective league standings are automatically updated based upon game scores. If members of your organization are constantly checking and re-checking your website for updated game results, they can now be automatically notified by e-mail or text message the instant the scores are posted.

Community

Youth sports organizations and clubs are social communities. Children today learn many valuable lessons from participation in organizations and clubs. They participate in organizations and clubs to have fun and to be with their friends. ClubSetup helps your youth sports organization by building online communities of people who share common interests and activities.

Sport organizations need the involvement of their community: volunteers, parents, and players. ClubSetup’s innovative technology makes it possible to enlist ever-larger numbers of non-technical people to accomplish what used to be complex and creative tasks.

ClubSetup demystifies technology and encourages everyone to get involved. Your members will become more motivated, and likely to contribute to your online community through a sense of ownership and personal connection.

Connect

Today’s internet users want to participate and be included. However today’s organizational website choices are built by webmasters for users that simply allow them to check and view information. These websites make it difficult to connect with your community.

ClubSetup is one of the best ways to connect with your community and increase participation. We allow your users to share what they know and easily collaborate with each other.

Here is how your users can participate.

Team Pages

Team pages are where teams connect with players, coaches, parents, and fans with information such as; schedules, results, team calendars, rosters, coach messages, logos, video’s, photos and more.

Imagine your ClubSetup team page as a LEGO house built up from individual ClubSetup blocks that fit the needs of your team. Teams are no longer forced to have team pages that look the “cookie cutter” sites way your software builder wanted you to have. Team page members will be able to add new content, upload photos, change text, move pages, change your site style, and so much more. All of this done with "point & click" ease.

ClubSetup team pages also serve as your communication hub where your team members can be pro-actively notified via email or text messaging about events such as:, latest game results, updated standing, practices, changes, new photo’s, new content, snack dates and much more.

Player and Parent Pages

Players and parents can manage their own network of friends with ClubSetup player and parent profile pages. Players and parents can personalize their own profile page with their own photo’s, video’s, ClubSetup Modules, sports related widgets such as a communication link to their favorite athletes, games, polls, groups, and buddy list. ClubSetup even allows users to link their profiles and create networks and ecosystems of like-minded individuals. Profile pages contain information about the individual and are your way to connect and share your athletic experiences with the people that mean the most to you.

Using ClubSetup player pages, children are encouraged to show their writing creativity by writing about their experience, which they can selectively share with friends, family, relatives and teachers.

Communicate

With ClubSetup’s advanced communication and notification facilities you can Publish, Promote, and Connect instantly to your community.
