Netball club volunteer management

Volunteer management software for netball clubs

Netball runs on back-to-back games and duty rosters. VolunTeam lets you publish every scorer, timer and duty slot for the round in one go, then reminds people before they are due on court.

  • Scorer and timer slots for every game
  • Duty team rosters by round
  • Canteen and BBQ shifts in short blocks
  • Reminders, swaps and hours tracking

Netball volunteer roles you can roster

Numbers are a guide only — set your own slots, names and times to match how your club runs.

Duty rosters that rotate fairly

Publish a duty slot for each round and let teams claim it, or assign it and let VolunTeam send the reminders. Hours are logged either way, so it is obvious at the end of the season which teams pulled their weight.

  • One opportunity per round with named jobs
  • Assign directly or let volunteers self-select
  • Leaderboard and CSV export of hours

Short shifts, lots of them

Netball days are made of 40-minute jobs. Multiple time slots live inside one opportunity, so a full court day is a single card on your public page rather than twenty separate posts.

  • Multi-slot opportunities grouped into one card
  • Named jobs like Scorer, Timer and Cashier
  • Volunteers sign up from their phone in under a minute

Keep parents in the loop

Bulk email or SMS everyone on a shift, or just the people who haven't signed up yet. Shift emails include an add-to-calendar file so the slot lands straight in their phone.

Common questions

Can we roster a whole duty team rather than individuals?

Yes. Create a duty slot for the round with the number of people you need, and either let the team's parents claim spots or assign them and let the reminders do the chasing.

Do scorers and timers get reminded before their game?

Every shift can send up to three automatic reminders by email, and SMS on a paid plan, timed however you like before the game.
