Supporting Multiple Clubs

Hi Conor,

I’m currently creating a website which will act as a hub for a number of running clubs who compete in regular mob matches (i.e. a number of clubs arrange to race at a local event and compete against each other both individually and as clubs).

Your plugin is fantastic for creating events, adding results and generating rankings which are the core elements needed for my site. I think it could be adapted to support multiple clubs on a single website.

Here are my brief thoughts to achieve this…
1) Add a “Support Multiple Clubs” checkbox to WP Athletics Settings which can be used to show/hide as appropriate the aspects described below
2) Create a “Manage Clubs” section which would allow the following data items to be managed for each club: Club Name, Location (e.g. Town/City), County, Country, Website URL.
3) Provide an additional field on the “Create New Athlete” form to record the Club that the athlete is a member of.
4) Add “Club” column to “Manage Results” table, perhaps next to the “Name” column
5) Add “Club” column to “Event Results” table
6) Add a “Club” filter to “Club Records” section (i.e. alongside Year and Terrain filters)
7) Add a “Club” filter to “Print Rankings” section

I realise that perhaps support for multiple clubs wouldn’t be a widely sought after feature, so I quite understand if you feel this wouldn’t be appropriate to add to your plugin.

This would obviously be quite a bit of work and I would be happy to code this up myself from September onwards.

I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on this.

Cheers,
Clive
