🚀 We've improved e-scoring for all netball scorers.

Player interchanges now happen in a single tap, no more remove, then re-add.

Positions are tracked chronologically, period by period, so Best & Fairest voting is accurate every time.

Less friction on the bench. More focus on the game.

We've updated PlayHQ's netball e-scoring system with improvements designed to reduce friction for scorers and improve accuracy for umpires.What's new:• Singl...

Somewhere out there, a volunteer is logging into a website they haven't touched in 14 months to update a fixture that's already been played.

We've all seen it. Some of us have lived it.

The club website has become one of those thankless jobs that falls to whoever put their hand up at the AGM and it shows. Broken links. Last season's ladder. A registration page that goes nowhere.

Meanwhile, the same volunteer is also running the canteen roster, coordinating with the umpire coordinator, and answering 47 messages in the club Facebook group.

Something had to give.

So we built it.

PlayHQ Club Websites takes everything your club already manages in PlayHQ — and turns it into a proper website. Automatically. No one needs to touch it.

Gone:
– Manually updating fixtures after every round
– Hunting down whoever set up the old site
– Copying registration links across three different platforms
– Paying someone to make a simple change
– "Can someone update the website?" messages that nobody responds to

In:
⚡️ Live fixtures, ladders and results
⚡️ Auto-updating registration links
⚡️ Built-in posts and club updates
⚡️ Sponsor-ready layouts
⚡️ Drag-and-drop editing
⚡️ Free domain included
⚡️ AI and SEO optimised so your club shows up on Google and ChatGPT
