Benefits of Clipboard Compete for Associations
Efficient Fixture Management
Automated Scheduling: Input team availabilities and marquee games to automatically generate an entire season's Fixtures, or import your fixtures from a spreadsheet using our Import tool
Real-Time Updates: Any changes to Fixtures are updated instantly across the platform.
Centralised Communication
Automatic notifications: Fixture updates are automatically sent to all involved schools via their Fixture Inbox, so you can eliminate back-and-forth emails and minimise scheduling errors.
Real-Time Results and Standings
Instant Reporting: Team Staff and Managers can enter Results immediately after matches using their mobile devices, the same way Core schools have always done using Clipboard.
Up-to-Date Standings: Scores and league tables are updated on the association's Compete site in real time.
Benefits of Clipboard Compete for Schools
Simplified Team Management
Easy Team Nomination: Quick nomination of Teams and managing player rosters.

Clipboard Compete Versions: Core and Lite
Clipboard Compete works best with the Core version of Clipboard:
The Core version is the full-featured platform, including:
Ability to manage your own Sessions and Fixtures
Planned & historic Team management capabilities
Comprehensive Communication Tools: Transactional notifications and bulk messaging capabilities
Live support during business hours, for any technical issues or questions
Plus more, including Clipboard’s Attendance functionality for roll-marking and access to modules at an additional cost - Activity Selection, Incident Management and Timesheets for casual staff.
However, if a school in an Association does not yet have Clipboard, they will be provided with access to the Lite version of Clipboard.
The Lite version is a streamlined, free version for Associations' schools that don’t have Clipboard, providing all the essential features allowing the School to benefit from Clipboard Compete, including:
Basic Fixture Management: Manage Fixtures created by the Association
Essential Communication: Basic transactional notifications and updates for Fixtures and Results for Staff.
Simplified Result Entry: Coaches can enter Results and the Association can see those Results
Reduced Support: Clipboard Lite schools do not have access to Live Support.
