For my kids' football club

Who's playing where, and when

Pitch bookings and the fixtures calendar for Shevington FC, so coaches and parents know who's playing where, and when.

Built for the club, so not shared publicly

Why I built it

I manage both my boys’ teams at Shevington FC and I help sort the fixtures for the club. With 15 teams sharing a handful of pitches, somebody has to know who’s on where, and everybody else needs to be able to check.

What it does

It’s a fixtures list and calendar for the club’s pitches, Vicarage Lane’s big and small pitches, the Hub and the Rec. You can filter by team, by pitch, home or away, or just this weekend. Every fixture shows the kick-off, the format, which pitch, a countdown, and buttons to share it or add it to your calendar.

Each pitch only allows the right size of game, so nobody can book an 11-a-side onto the small pitch by mistake. Behind a password there’s an admin side for adding teams and fixtures, including a box you can paste a block of fixtures into.

How I use it

Every Monday I check it against the FA’s site, then post the week’s home games to the club WhatsApp group. It also gave us the team list for the club’s new website.

A game for my boys

Wolfie Run

Built in an evening for my boys before the Warrington Wolves Grand Final. I shared it in a couple of Wolves Facebook groups and about 100 people played over 800 games in the first few days.
