There are dozens of sports team apps out there. TeamSnap, PlayHQ, GameDay, Teamer — the list goes on.
So why build another one? Because most of them are solving the wrong problem for grassroots clubs.
You get a website, not just an app
Most sports apps give you a dashboard that only logged-in members can see. Great for the 15 people on the team. Invisible to everyone else.
Matchdae gives you a public club website. Supporters, parents, and sponsors can see your fixtures, news, and results without creating an account. When a potential new member Googles your club name, they actually find something.
Why this matters
A public website is your club's front door. An app dashboard is a locked office. Both have their place — but you need the front door first.
No app download required
Every time you ask a parent to download an app, you lose half of them. “I'll do it later” means never.
Matchdae is a progressive web app — it works in any browser and can be added to the home screen with one tap. No app store, no updates, no storage complaints. Just open the link.
Built for Oceania
Most sports apps are built for American or European markets. They support baseball, lacrosse, and field hockey — but rugby league? Touch rugby? Netball?
Matchdae is built for AU/NZ clubs from the ground up. The sports, the terminology, the competition structures — they all make sense here. We know the difference between a conversion and a penalty goal, and our fixtures understand bye rounds.
8 sports supported
Rugby League, Rugby Union, Football, Netball, Cricket, Touch Rugby, Hockey, and Basketball — with more coming based on demand.
Actually free
Most “free” sports apps show you a stripped-down version and then charge $200+ per year for basics like stats or team selection.
Matchdae's free plan includes fixtures, results, player profiles, and a full club website. The Club plan is free during beta, and early adopters keep their rate locked in.
One platform for everything
Here's what most clubs juggle today:
- Facebook for announcements
- WhatsApp for availability
- Google Sheets for the roster
- Bank transfer for payments
- Instagram for photos
- Wix or nothing for a website
That's six tools. Six logins. Six places where information gets lost.
Matchdae puts fixtures, stats, availability, chat, payments, events, documents, sponsors, gallery, and governance in one place. Use what you need, ignore the rest.
Key Takeaway
The difference isn't features — most apps have similar feature lists. The difference is that Matchdae gives your club a public identity, not just an internal tool. Your club deserves to be found, not hidden behind a login screen.
