Grovr is the club night, the team sheet, the scorebook and the broadcast van — in one app. Broadcast your matches like the pros. Go live to YouTube straight from a phone at the boundary, with broadcast-quality score overlays that update ball by ball. Friends, family and club legends watch from anywhere — and every wicket is there to relive. Score every sport your club plays. Ball-by-ball cricket scoring that works with no signal at the ground, plus football, netball, badminton, tennis, squash, table tennis, padel and pickleball. Spectators follow live scorecards in real time. Never chase availability again. Members mark themselves available in two taps, selectors pick from live availability, and team sheets go out with one press. Reminders chase the stragglers so you don't have to. Run leagues your members talk about all week. Internal mini-leagues, franchise-style competitions with player auctions, live leaderboards, Orange Cap-style races and an MVP crown. Keep the money simple. Match fees allocated in seconds, balances every member can see, and a treasurer view that finally matches reality. Everything else a club needs: announcements and chat, club stats and personal milestones, player profiles with full history, kit tracking, AGM votes, membership records and photos. Built for every club that takes its weekends seriously.
