What a cricket club website needs, the ways to build one, and how to keep it current after every game.
A cricket club website has one job for most of the year. It tells people what is on and makes the club look like somewhere worth being. Building it once is the easy part. Keeping it current is where most clubs come unstuck.
A general website builder like Wix or Squarespace looks tidy but knows nothing about cricket, so every result and stat goes in by hand. A generic club system handles members and payments but rarely the cricket itself. A cricket platform builds the site from your match data, so the fixtures and stats keep themselves up to date.
Most club websites die the same way. Someone keen builds a good one and keeps it fed for a season. Then they get busy. A year on, the fixtures are wrong, the results stop in November, and the site does more harm than the old Facebook page did. A site that draws from your match data avoids that, because the updates arrive on their own.
The better approach is to wire the site to the data your club already records. Fixtures, results, ladders, player profiles and leaderboards then fill themselves in and stay right after every game.
BetterSocials gives your club a public website built from your own match data, in your crest, colours and fonts, with a post designer for match-day graphics. It reads the same data as your stats, so the website is current after every game and the only thing you add is the news you want to share.
