Team Administration

The service includes a ready built website for your club team to which the administrator can add players, photographs, commentary, fixtures and results. Detailed statistics, including player ranking tables are automatically generated from scores entered and can be distributed by our SMS text services to team members. All club team pages are publicly accessible online, and all tables, statistics, fixtures and results can be printed. Your team site will contain links to the league that your team is affiliated to, and to other teams in your league that have both registered with ClubGB and have affiliated to your league.

Registering Teams

Each team should elect a ClubGB ‘Team Administrator’. They will register the team with ClubGB – a five minute job which just involves typing in the team name, entering contact details and basic team information.

A separate registration must be made for each team in your club:

If you are the administrator for two or more teams in your club, you will need to register each one separately.

On registering, the team administrator must select a user ID (email address) and a password which will enable them to log in to update the team pages with scores and results, player information and news. If you are the results secretary for two or more divisions, you can have the same user ID, but you must choose a different password for each registration.

Only the team administrator will be able to update the team’s pages.
