Club & academy operations

Clubs are where athletes are actually made. Fitofan gives them the same operational quality as their federation: groups, attendance, billing and entries in one place.

Overview

A club's administration is relentless and unglamorous: registers, absences, unpaid months, consent forms, competition deadlines. Done on paper and in messengers, it consumes evenings and still leaks money.

Fitofan gives every club its own workspace — training groups with timetables and capacity, phone-based attendance, tuition plans that invoice themselves, a parent portal for schedules and payments, and athlete profiles that accumulate grades, attendance and competition history.

Because the club sits inside the federation's platform, the roster is also a licence register. Entering the team into the next championship means selecting athletes from a list, not filling forms and re-typing birthdates.

  2. PHASE 02

    Run the week

    Everything a coach does after training, automated.

    • Attendance marked in seconds at the door
    • Absences, make-up sessions and trial classes tracked
    • Announcements sent to the right groups and families
  3. PHASE 03

    Get paid

    Predictable cashflow without chasing.

    • Invoices generated on schedule and paid online
    • Automatic reminders on overdue balances
    • Revenue, occupancy and retention visible per group
  4. PHASE 04

    Compete and progress

    The competitive pipeline, connected.

    • Enter teams into federation events from the roster
    • Track grades, tests and competition results per athlete
    • Share results and highlights with parents

Whole-team entries with eligibility validated upfront.

FAQ

Club & academy operations: common questions

Can a club use Fitofan without its federation?
Yes. Clubs and academies run standalone and can connect to a federation later without re-entering data.
Do parents need an app?
No. Parents use a browser portal and see only their own family's schedules, payments and results.
Can we run multiple locations?
Yes. Venues, coaches and groups are modelled separately, with reporting per location.
