Team and attendance tracker
If you, as a sports team or club, don’t have any sort of messaging system set up to message members all at once, then the coach would have to get in contact with each individual member every time there is a new team activity – just like it was done before the internet. It would be extremely time consuming, which is why there are lots of different options today for instant messaging small and larger numbers of groups. SportMember offers you a free sports team attendance tracker, that does the tedious job who’s coming to the various activities and record the answers for you.

My attendance tracker - features and benefits
If you’re having trouble assembling a whole squad for practices or matches, or you lacking engagement from members in your sports club, an attendance tracker can be an effective tool for mobilizing players and members. The attendance tracker helps in numerous and different ways, so you can get the team together:
- All-in-one: The SportMember app is connected to the whole SportMember software. Therefore the attendance tracker can communicate with our other features meaning you can import your membership data directly to the tracker. You don’t have to use separate apps for attendance, calendar, payments, line-ups etc, and have to import data to each separate app for whenever you have to use it. With SportMember you get the benefit of having all the features in one app.
- Automated attendance tracking: With our attendance app you have the option to automatically let your members know about news or changes and remind them of upcoming events. All you have to do is set up when and how members should receive notifications. If a coach creates a new activity, all players will automatically receive an email or push message if they have the app installed on their smartphone. The activity can be copied for future use, for instance practices, so the same players get the same notification. This is possible because the attendance tracker is connected to the shared schedule maker.
- Free attendance templates: For many sports activities you don’t only want to know if members can attend or not. There are usually some tasks involved, so it can be necessary to know who does what. The free templates cover the most common sports activities, and members can register their names if they want the task. It’s especially useful for carpooling at kids or youth sports tournaments, so everyone can see who’s driving and how many seats are available.
- Time saving: One of the major benefits of the attendance tracker is the amount of time you save - which is a lot. Notifications and alerts goes out to all members immediately, and you don’t have to worry if they got the message or not. Likewise, when members respond you get an instant notification as well, and all this is preset to be done automatically. It is also possible to inform only the members who have already registered for the activity about any changes. Everyone determine themselves of how many push messages or emails they want to receive.
- Register attendance over time: The tracker saves the data for each activity, so you can see how attendance progresses over time. The data can be shown as statistical information of who and how many are attending team activities - something you can’t see in the day to day management. The information from the attendance tracker is automatically transferred to the SportMember attendance statistics. So you always have an overview of who has attended, missed or missed without further comments. This can be a very useful management tool for every sports team or club, who wants to follow their development in terms of actual membership volume and engagement.
