AI sports club software for Cardiff
PlyrHQ runs the back office for academies, clubs, and federations across Cardiff, United Kingdom — payments, attendance, communication and AI insights in one app.
Last updated:
Cardiff is the capital of a rugby nation, and the sport runs deep through the city's grassroots clubs and the valleys around it. But like community clubs everywhere in Wales, they run on volunteer time: a club secretary, a treasurer, a handful of coaching parents. Membership records live in a spreadsheet, subs are chased by text, and fixture changes go out on a group chat. PlyrHQ gives Cardiff clubs one app that handles all of it, so volunteers spend their evenings on rugby rather than admin.
Why clubs in Cardiff need modern software
Cardiff club secretaries describe the same pains as volunteer-run clubs across Wales: chasing membership subs every season, keeping junior consent and medical forms current, and getting fixture and training changes out reliably without a 150-person group chat. PlyrHQ collects subs through automated reminders, stores consent forms against each member, and sends fixture changes by targeted push notification.
Sports culture in Cardiff
Rugby union is woven into the city's identity, with community clubs feeding the regional and national game. Football is the largest participation sport by numbers, run through junior leagues across the city and the valleys. Cricket runs through the summer at clubs across Glamorgan. Netball has a strong and growing club scene, and athletics is well supported through Cardiff's track facilities. Most clubs are multi-section and volunteer-run, so the administration burden falls on a small group of people.
Clubs we serve in Cardiff
PlyrHQ is used by community rugby clubs across Cardiff and the surrounding valleys, junior football clubs, cricket clubs through the summer season, netball clubs, and athletics clubs. Membership ranges from roughly 60 to 900 across age groups, and many clubs run several sections, so one secretary often administers the whole organisation.
How a Cardiff coach runs PlyrHQ
A community rugby club in Cardiff with 320 members across mini, junior, and senior sections moved off spreadsheets onto PlyrHQ: the membership database imported in one pass, subs were collected by card with automated reminders, and training changes pushed only to the affected age groups. The club secretary cut weekly admin from about 10 hours to 3.
