Autumn 2024 Update

12th October 2024

November 2024 will see the launch of the next major version of ClubPal! It's been a long time in the works, and we're really excited for everyone to see it. Below is a summary of what you can expect when it launches.

A New Look and Feel

The new Theme Builder window.

We've taken the opportunity to refresh the UI of the site with a new modern design. Almost everything is in the same place as before, but with the new UI, you'll also be able to update your site theme, so that the colours match those of your club.

As you change the colours, the site will update in real time so you can see exactly what it will look like.

We've also made a number of updates behind the scenes which will help us to roll new updates out quicker in the future. We've got lots of great updates coming in the next 12 months.

Session Page Changes

The new session page

We've restructured the Session page, moving to a tabbed interface. This move gives us more space to add more features to sessions. We've moved the Attendance and Bookings to their own tabs, as well as adding Google Maps support and What3Words.

Google Maps Support

When editing a session, you can now set the location using Google Maps. You can fine tune the location by dragging the pin to the exact location for the session meeting location, and a What3Words link will automatically be generated and added to the session page.

Coming Soon

In the future we hope to add document storage to sessions as well as photo uploads. Stay tuned for more information about this next year.

Two Factor Authentication (2FA)

Sign in with 2FA

We've now added the option to secure your account with Two Factor Authentication. 2FA adds an additional layer of security to your account by requiring more than just a password to sign in. Using an authenticator app like Google Authenticator or Microsoft Authenticator you'll be generated a code to log in.

 

Safeguarding Updates

We've added two new flags to the session check in page. Members under 18 will have a badge added next to their booking to alert the coach. In addition, we've added a “First Session” badge to a members booking so the coach in charge of the session can welcome and brief the member.

Email Enhancements

Previously, emails only supported a single attachment up to 5Mb in size. We're increasing this limit to 5 attachments, each 5Mb in size. We hope this small improvement makes life easier for Clubs.
