Admin
If you’re involved in running a football club then you’ll know the effort it takes to keep on top of the huge amount of admin.
While choosing to do that online doesn’t magically make it all disappear, it can definitely save time and cut down on processes that are a hassle for volunteers.
With Pitchero, you can:
- Use a hosted control panel to manage all aspects of your club from one place
- Import league fixtures, results and tables automatically
- Send reminders with a link to pay instantly
- View live financial figures and run reports
1. Website Builder
Your football club could use a website builder - like Pitchero - that is a complete package with everything you need.
It will typically include templates or themes to style your website, hosting, domain registration, SSL certificate, plus access to support for a low monthly fee.
Your football club could use a website builder - like Pitchero - that is a complete package with everything you need.
A website builder is designed to offer customisation but you can’t dive in and change the code or functionality of the website all the time.
Your football club could use a website builder - like Pitchero - that is a complete package with everything you need.
This will suit if you prefer having certain things locked down so you can’t accidentally break something or potentially take your football website offline.
- Easy to use
- Some limitations
2. Content Management System (CMS)
A content management system (CMS) like Wordpress.org, Drupal or Magento is much more flexible than a website builder. Anything can be changed or customised - for those that like ultimate control.
It means if your football club wants to change the website colour scheme, fonts, or layout of the news items on your homepage, there will be a plugin or some code to achieve that.
The downside is that someone will have to work that out, plus test and implement it correctly.
Technology is always changing and so bolt-on additions (as with a Wordpress plugin to include a newsletter sign-up form) will need monitoring and updating.
Keeping track of this ongoing website maintenance, including hosting and domain renewals, will need to fall to a club official who understands websites or outsource to a professional.
A sports club might choose to hire a website designer to build their perfect football club website to a set specification using a CMS as the framework.
This will be a project that means your football club gets exactly what it wants in every aspect, down to the fine detail, but it needs longer-term planning and much more up-front cost (typically thousands of pounds).
While a website builder still needs someone to create the content, whether it’s news items, statistics, league tables or uploading match videos, a club can create an account and get started immediately.
- Ultimate control
- Responsibility for downtime and upgrades
