Registration and member management without the spreadsheet

Most club registration is a form that goes stale the day it is submitted. On AthletiLink a player registers with a profile they maintain themselves — position, age group, availability, contact preferences — so your member list stays current without anyone re-typing it.

What club registration actually needs to do

Registration is not a one-off form. It is the start of a record you will use every week for team selection, communication and subs collection, and it decays fast when it lives in a spreadsheet copied between committee members.

Tying registration to a living athlete profile means the details update at the source. When a player changes phone number or position, your list changes with them.

  • Player-owned profiles that stay current
  • Sport, position, age group and availability captured up front
  • One searchable member directory instead of scattered sheets
  • Messaging built in, so registration flows straight into contact
  • Public club page so new registrations arrive from search
  • No per-member licence fee

From sign-up to first session

The gap between someone registering and someone turning up is where clubs lose most new members. Reply the same week, name the first session, say what to bring and who will meet them at the gate.

Everything needed to do that — the message thread, the profile, the event post — sits on the same platform, so nothing waits on one volunteer's inbox.

Step by step

  1. 01

    Publish your club page

    Sport, level, location, training times and what you are recruiting for.

  2. 02

    Point sign-ups at it

    Use the same link on posters, social bios and local listings.

  3. 03

    Reply within a week

    Name a first session, kit, cost and a contact who will meet them.

  4. 04

    Keep the directory tidy

    Members maintain their own details; you review the roster each season.

Frequently asked questions

Do we need to pay for member management?

No. Registration, the member directory and messaging are free for clubs of any size.

Can we collect subs through the platform?

AthletiLink does not process payments. Clubs link their own payment provider and keep the full amount minus that provider's fees.

Does it cost anything to run a club on AthletiLink?

No. Creating a club presence, posting to the feed, searching the member directory and messaging players is free. You never need a paid plan to recruit or communicate with your squad.

Can players find us without an account?

Yes. Club and athlete pages, the feed and the directory are all publicly browsable, so prospective players and parents can read about you before they sign up. An account is only needed to message, post or save people.
