Swimming club management, built for the poolside

Squads and stages, gala entries and family memberships — ClubPlaces handles the lot, so coaches can coach and parents can keep up.

Made to fit

From learn-to-swim to the county champs

  • Track swim stages and progression, with a full history per swimmer
  • Open gala and event registrations with capacity and waiting lists
  • Family memberships — one parent, one login, all their children
  • Collect monthly subs and renewals straight to your club account

What you'll lean on

The features that matter most

Stages & progression

See exactly where every swimmer is, and how close they are to the next stage.

Gala registrations

Open entries, set capacity, and let waiting lists fill spots automatically.

Family accounts

Parents register and pay for all their children in a single checkout.

Subs & renewals

Monthly or annual — reminders and online payment handle the chasing for you.

Squad comms

Email a squad, a stage group or the whole club — no more lost WhatsApp threads.

Waiting lists

Popular sessions fill fairly: when a place opens, the next swimmer is offered it.

Frequently asked questions

Everything swimming clubs ask us

Can we track swim stages and awards?

Yes. Use categories and custom fields to record each swimmer's stage, and keep a full history as they progress. Coaches can see at a glance who's ready to move up.

How do gala entries work?

Create the gala as an event, set capacity and price, and open registrations. Members enter online in a couple of taps, payments land in your club account, and waiting lists fill any spots that open up.

Can parents manage more than one swimmer?

Yes — family accounts are built in. One parent login covers all their children: one view of what's on, one checkout for entries and subs, and consent handled in the same place.

Can we import our existing member list?

Yes. Upload a CSV or spreadsheet and we'll map your columns automatically — most clubs are fully migrated within ten minutes.
