Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about VolunTeam for clubs, volunteers, and admins.
What is VolunTeam?
VolunTeam is volunteer management software built for Australian community and sporting clubs. It helps clubs roster volunteers for game-day duties, canteen shifts, season-long roles, and special events — all in one place.
Is VolunTeam free to try?
Yes. Every new club gets a 14-day free trial with every feature unlocked. No credit card is required to start.
How much does VolunTeam cost?
VolunTeam has one simple plan: $59/month or $500/year, with all features included for every club size. Prices exclude GST. Tax is calculated at checkout. Every new club starts with a 14-day free trial and no credit card is required.
How do I set up my club?
Sign up, create your club profile, and start building your first season. You can add volunteer roles, create opportunities, and invite managers or volunteers from the club dashboard.
How do volunteers sign up for shifts?
Volunteers visit your club's public page, choose an open shift, and click to sign up. They can also request a swap if they can no longer make a shift they have already accepted.
What are season positions?
Season positions are ongoing roles like committee members, coaches, managers, or canteen coordinators. Each position has a weekly hour allocation, and those hours are tracked automatically across the season.
Can volunteers swap shifts?
Yes. Volunteers cannot remove their own shifts; instead they request a swap, which is then approved by a club admin. This keeps your roster reliable and avoids last-minute gaps.
Does VolunTeam work on mobile?
Yes. VolunTeam is fully responsive, so volunteers and admins can sign up, manage shifts, and view dashboards from any phone, tablet, or desktop.
Can volunteers check in and out of shifts?
Yes. Attendance tracking is included with a VolunTeam subscription, so clubs can record actual hours worked and run reports on filled and unfilled shifts.
Can I import members in bulk?
Yes. Subscribed clubs can import members from a CSV file, making it easy to move your existing volunteer list into VolunTeam.
How are hours tracked?
Hours are tracked from completed shifts, attendance check-ins, and season position allocations. Club admins can view hours by volunteer, by role, and by date range.
Can I export rosters for social media?
Yes. You can download a branded roster image sized for social media posts, with a ready-to-copy caption. No manual design work needed.
Is our club and volunteer data secure?
Yes. VolunTeam uses Row-Level Security and authenticated access, so club and volunteer data is only visible to the people who should see it.
Can I put my club in recess?
Yes. Clubs can enter a timed recess and choose when to reopen. Billing is paused during recess, but annual subscriptions are non-refundable and continue running.
How do I cancel my subscription?
You can cancel at any time from the club dashboard. Monthly subscriptions stop at the end of the current billing period. Annual subscriptions are paid upfront and remain active until the end of the paid year.
