Stop Losing Your Evenings and Weekends to Club Admin

Every volunteer role faces unique challenges - but they all share the same frustration

Manual Club Administration

  • Membership Secretaries: "Who's actually paid?" Annual renewals consuming entire weekends
  • Team Captains: Creating events across WhatsApp, emails, and notice boards
  • Committee: Outdated member data when you need to make decisions
  • Everyone: Emergency contacts that don't work when you need them most

Real-Time Visibility & Smart Automation

  • See your club's pulse in real-time: membership status, payments, attendance at a glance
  • Know who's coming before events start: clear visibility of attendance and waiting lists
  • Emergency contacts that work: validated data available when you need it most
  • Communication you can trust: know exactly who received and opened your messages

Built for the AI era

Run your club by conversation

RunClub HQ ships its own MCP server — the open standard that lets an assistant reach a system and do real work in it. So a committee member can point Claude at the club and simply ask.

Connect your assistant

Claude, Cursor or VS Code, signed in with standard OAuth against your club. It gets your permissions and no more.

"Import Sunday's results"

Hand over what the organiser published. Runners are matched to members, and anything uncertain stops rather than guessing.

A person still signs it off

Staged results wait for a human. Drafted replies to members land in an editable box, and a volunteer presses send.

Nothing is published or sent to a member until somebody at the club says so. That is a rule in the product, not a promise in a policy.

Import Sunday’s RR10 results for the Alresford race.

Assistant

42 finishers read. 39 matched to members and recorded. 3 left for you: two unfamiliar club spellings, and one name that matches two members.

3 staged for review
An example exchange. The counts are the ones the importer really reports — recorded, staged for review, ignored — and the staged rows stay staged until somebody at the club decides.

Automated renewals

The season renews itself

The job that used to eat entire weekends now runs without anyone driving it.

  • Members get reminded

    Timed reminders go out on their own, and stop the moment someone renews.

  • They pay by Direct Debit

    Details already on file, one confirmation, collected automatically.

  • Lapses handle themselves

    Grace periods run, statuses move, and nobody is quietly dropped by accident.

The committee watches a dashboard instead of chasing a list. In our own club, 95% of members were renewed on the first day of the new season.

Club website

Your club website, included

On your own domain, in your own colours, edited by whoever is on the committee this year. No WordPress, no plugins, no hosting bill.

Winchester Running Club's live home page: a full-width photograph of club members in race vests behind the headline 'If you want to be a better runner tomorrow, you are a performance athlete', the club's navigation bar with Training, Membership, Events, Records and News, and a Performance, Development, Participation section below.
Not a template site — this is winchesterrunningclub.org.uk as it is live today, drawing its fixtures, records and news from the same place the members app does.

Make It Easier to Join, Participate, Contribute & Stay

Every volunteer gets the visibility they need. Every member gets a professional experience.

Easy to Join

New members sign up in minutes, not days. No forms to print, no cheques to chase. They're running with you sooner.

Easy to Participate

Members find their next run, sign up instantly, and check in when they arrive. Always know what's on and who's coming.

Easy to Contribute

Volunteers see exactly what they need, when they need it. Less time on admin means more time coaching, leading, and actually running.

Easy to Stay

Renewing is effortless. No chasing payments, no awkward reminders. Members stay because staying is the easy choice.

Switching

Up and running in an afternoon

Three steps, and none of them is a project.

  1. Bring your members across

    Send us the spreadsheet you're working from today. We migrate the member list — nobody re-types anything.

  2. Invite them

    Members sign in with a magic link. No password to set, none to reset, and nothing for a volunteer to administer.

  3. The season runs itself

    Renewals, payments, events and check-in tick over on their own. You watch a dashboard instead of chasing a list.

We migrate your existing member data as part of onboarding, so working out the import isn't your problem to solve. Ask us and we'll walk through it with you.
