Preparing members for the new season
It's coming up to the new season and you're working frantically to get in touch with all members to get them engaged. This often means trawling through endless spreadsheets to collect contact information and then manually texting or emailing to roll out plans for the new season to advise on registration and membership fees to be paid. Sound familiar?
Paper registration forms
Great you've done step 1, now it's just a case of handing out paper registration forms to any new players.
Handing out is the easy part but getting these back is not so easy! We know that in some cases coaches are chasing parents for completed forms or receiving them half done. Coaches can even get caught up in delivering a drip feed of batches of forms to the Club Secretary, not an ideal situation when a Secretary needs to get player information registered via their governing body and coaches just want to focus on football!
Collecting fees
More often this responsibility rolls on to coaches who will take money at the sidelines as players come to training. Coaches feeling unprepared often find it hard to remember who has given them money and who hasn't. Not ideal when the club treasurer is trying to work out who still has to pay!
Tracking payments
Well hopefully, you've made it to this step and well done! Now over to the club secretary to work out who has paid and who hasn't. This can be the tricky part if no proper process has been put in place for seamless tracking. Stop, TeamFeePay have the solution!
In three simple steps you can enjoy a stress-free membership registration and payment collection process:
- Sign with TeamFeePay and enjoy a full setup of your account and payment plans
