ClubEvent has been designed to facilitate the many ways that clubs arrange and run events. We recognise that each club has its own wrinkles and preferences, and we aim to offer something that is better that what you use at the moment, whilst costing less! ClubEvent enables anyone to easily create and manage events; from competitions with hundreds of participants, regular club meetings, committee meetings, right down to a trip to the pub with some friends. Anything that brings people together, virtually or physically, can make use of ClubEvent. No more trawling 10 different places to discover who is coming to tonights practice session, and what they told you A Club Events are created within a club. Clubs are managed using a mobile app. The same app can also be accessed through any web browser. Your Admins can create and manage events. Your participants/members can use the same app to interact with events or they can be invited/updated via email messages. There is also an "Events" web page that can be embedded in your club website, or used standalone. This displays a list of upcoming events and, if ticketed, allow people to grab tickets for those events. Contacts A club can have a list of contacts - for invitation only events, contacts are chosen from this list. Contacts can be imported from a spreadsheet or from your phone's contact list. The contacts are "part of the club" and are shared between Club Administrators. MembersA club can have a list of members that have joined the club and may pay a subscription fee to the club Tags You can tag contacts with anything "senior/junior", "A team/B team", "flute/violin/brass". This makes it easy to pick people to invite to an event. Events At its simplest, and event has a Title, Date, Time, Duration, Location and Description. - Create an Invitation event; invite a selection of contacts to an event - they can then accept or decline events, either through the app or by email. - Create a ticketed event; tickets can be free or paid; we use Stripe as a payment provider, or you can collect payment via bank tranfer, cash, etc. - Create an event, just to tell people something is happening.
