Welsh Gymnastics Case Study

Welsh Gymnastics leverage power of Sport:80 Platform to stimulate member engagement and drive revenues

The Challenge

A new membership system required to modernise processes

Welsh Gymnastics approached us having recognised the need to modernise their membership registration system and enhance member experience. Seeking to build on their commitment to their community, the National Governing Body (NGB) required a new technology solution which could provide a hassle-free experience for their athletes, coaches, officials, volunteers, and clubs.

57% of members using auto-renewal functionality within weeks of launch

90+ clubs using integration with Welsh Sports Association's DBS system

20k+ members managed via the Sport:80 Platform

The Solution

Streamlining processes for enhanced member engagement

We developed a system which provided Welsh Gymnastics with significantly improved membership processes that included diverse payment options, automated renewals, and streamlined member management across their network. The introduction of features such as digital membership cards has also allowed the organisation to benefit from enhanced community engagement and opportunities for revenue generation. Additionally, the NGB have taken advantage of our integration with the Welsh Sports Association’s DBS service, which simplifies the process of handling DBS records, supports compliance procedures, and reduces administrative burden.
