The Challenge
Manual & Tedious Financial Management
Before switching to Swimmingly for our team registration, our registration process was very very manual. I would have to collect hundreds of checks and deposit them with our HOA. I had to closely manage all the financials for the swim team in a very archaic process.
We had this tedious and manual registration process and then parents would also have to register with Swimmingly. This was very confusing for our parents and doubled the work for both myself and our swim team’s parents. The parents were frustrated because they went through the tedious manual process and then had to go somewhere else to register. It was confusing and frustrating.
The Solution
A One-Stop-Shop
When we started using Swimmingly for our registration, I immediately saved hours. I wanted to take the manual process out of my hands. We were already using Swimmingly for all of our meets. It made sense once I saw the registration process to move over to Swimmingly and give our parents a one-stop shop to access everything. Having a one-stop shop is definitely where I would like to stay. I can speak for the other teams in our league as well.
Our parents have told me that they love only having one place to go for the swim team. It is incredibly straightforward to register their swimmers, fill out any waivers and purchase any additional checkout items.
The Result
Time Saved and Happy Parents
I usually open registration in early March and then registration would go through the end of April. I would take all the checks that were dropped at my house, enter them into Excel, bundle everything up and take them to the HOA. I was spending 5+ hours a week for those 6 weeks. It was incredibly manual intensive. I would not be doing this job anymore if I still had to do that.
With Premium Club Registration on Swimmingly, I don’t have to do anything. I set up the registration and customized the waivers, club dues, and checkout items for our club quickly and everything is out of my hands. Our parents can quickly register their swimmers and I can generate a registration report to track how registration is going. Our team loves it.
