Teamer - Great app to manage your athletics club

Athletics

Do you want to save time when organising your athletics club? Teamer is your FREE, easy-to-use solution on the web or iOS and Android apps.

Here, we’ll dive into why Teamer could be your not-so-secret weapon. Imagine a fast way to ask who’s available, select your athletes and collect fees.

From experienced athletes competing at the top of their sport to juniors just beginning, Teamer can help you stay in control of club admin and collect payments.

Coaches can set up weekly training sessions for athletes, parents know when to pick up their kids, and your athletics club can go cashless.

Teamer really is an athletics club management platform providing admin-busting benefits.

All you have to do is set up your team page on our Teamer athlete management app or website. Here’s how…

Getting started

Create an account and set up your team (via the Teamer website or using the app)

Schedule athletics events and share them

View your runners’ availability in one place

Take payments securely online.

Create your team and invite your members

To launch on Teamer, all you need to do is to create your team. This can be set up in minutes by the athletics coach or team manager, with the option to add a team name, team crest and team photo.

The team manager invites all of the athletes via email

They can create their Teamer accounts and profiles

Each athlete profile can be personalised, they can fill in their key information - a photo, a bio and favourite sprinter or hammer thrower.

In addition, the athletics team manager can add private comments to each page. Members will all be visible on the member section of your Teamer page, and their details can be viewed quickly.

Who else can you invite?

As well as your athletes, you can also invite others to be involved on Teamer.

This could be coaches, parents, team volunteers or supporters who want to be kept in the loop!

As the team manager, you decide the status of other team members and adjust their account privileges accordingly.

For example, you could give access to one specific committee member to oversee the payments.

All fixture details together

Fixtures can be created in no time on the events page. You can schedule training sessions, races, track and field meets or socials.

Create event page with location and time
Can be recurring for training
Notify team members
Automatic reminders
Collect payments

Fixtures can be set up on Teamer very easily. You can schedule training sessions, races, track and field meets or social events.

With just a few clicks, organise a long jump session for the weekend and include all the details on the activity screen.

Notify your athletes about an extra training session this week, and the whole team will receive an email, SMS message or app notification, depending on their settings.

The events page displays the events in a list view, and there is also a calendar view so you can clearly see all the events coming up in the next few weeks.

You can connect the team calendar to your personal Google, iCal, or Outlook calendar, and all future Teamer events will automatically be synchronised!

Availability and team selection

The calendar view makes it straightforward for athletes to share their availability.

They just need to click on a certain day and drag across for however many days they are not available, and those days will become red on their calendar.

This information will be displayed on the team manager’s calendar, and the athletes will automatically be marked as unavailable for any events during that time.

On an individual event page, the manager has the opportunity to select the lineup and put athletes on standby.

The athletes can then accept or decline, and you don’t have to chase anyone down at 11 pm to find out if they can play. Everything’s transparent and easy for athletes and organisers.

Attendance

View attendance for your athletics team across a season. No more guessing. Make smart decisions on selection and athlete management based on data.

The attendance page displays a chart of all the recent statistics - the events and which athletes turned up. You can even see a historic record for an athlete.

Collect and manage weekly payments

Great news - no more counting cash or visits to the bank. With Teamer, you can move all of your athletics team payments online, saving you hassle and ensuring everyone pays their fees on time.

Setting up your team with Teamer payments takes minutes:

Create a merchant account with our partner Stripe

Start collecting payments

Collect membership fees (choose frequency)

Request match fees for any match event in the calendar

One-off payments (socials or charity events)

See who’s paid instantly

If you’re organising athletics, doing it with Teamer instead of trawling through bank statements or counting out cash, getting paid direct to your bank account has to be the way to go.

Upload photos, videos and documents

Your Teamer page has a gallery section, where anyone can upload photos and videos to share with team members.

The media can be seen by everyone in the team, and they can leave comments as well.

Teamer also has a document page where anyone can upload a document securely that will be seen by all the team members. You could share a photo of new athletics vests or a video from this morning’s triple jump.

Chat with teammates

Sometimes you need to get a message out to all your team members as quickly as possible. Or just want to chat with other athletes.

A team Whatsapp group is just another platform to have to use.Likewise, instead of a confusing email thread or lots of texts, use your teamtalk section to share any essential updates.

That way, it’s all in the same place for everyone to refer to. You can send messages that will be seen by all team members, whether athletes, supporters or volunteers.

Everyone can opt into your preferred mode of communication - email and notifications via the Teamer mobile app. All email and app notifications are free.

Check out top performances and medallists

Every event page has a section for athletes to leave comments, and there is a report section for the team manager as well.

Athletes can leave comments to congratulate a teammate on a new personal best or race medal.

The manager can write a report afterwards, describing all of the incredible feats and how everyone did.
