Moving your club from Excel: a step-by-step data migration plan
What to move, what to archive and how to prepare your file. Plan groups, participant records, parent invitations and fees, then check the first month.
Season-start documents for your club: versions, consent and acceptance
Organise family documents, privacy information and optional photo choices. Includes version records, practical acceptance routes and clearly identified Polish safeguarding requirements.
Planning club classes across rooms and venues
Build a room grid, approve timetable changes and keep group capacity consistent. Understand what Klubownik manages and where room planning remains manual.
Make-up class rules: credits, capacity and sample wording
Decide which absences qualify, how long credits last and where sessions can be booked. Includes adaptable wording that separates booking rules from refund rights.
Coach pay: rates per class, hour or participant present
Compare four rate models, agree cover rules and review each month's statement. Understand what Klubownik records and what remains with accounting.
Attendance on a coach's phone: introducing the team to a shared register
Prepare class lists, access and one attendance routine. Includes offline synchronisation, QR check-in and the seven-day limit before queued changes need review.
Tournament and club show registration: places, fees and reminders
Plan eligibility, capacity, form questions, payment and arrival information. Understand the different waiting-list behaviour of parent and public registrations.
Camp registration: initial payments, instalments and participant forms
Organise one registration list, a payment schedule and pre-camp information. Includes the Polish participant-card requirements and Klubownik's bank-transfer-only camp payments.
Club fees without a spreadsheet: references, records and reminders
Agree fee rules, use recognisable payment references and follow up on arrears. Includes online payment requirements and the limits of automatic bank processing.
How to follow up on a club class enquiry
A first-call checklist, missed-call message and written summary. Assign contact ownership and record the next step without losing the conversation history.
Trial classes: a clear path from enquiry to enrolment
Prepare families for their first class, set a trial-place limit and follow up with a clear next step. Includes message examples and Klubownik's current limits.
Seasonal club enrolment: keep track of every class enquiry
Bring form submissions, calls and social messages into one enquiry list. Give each a status, a contact owner and a clear next action.
