A regularly recurring administrative headache for every sports club is collecting subscriptions and ad-hoc payments from members. The treasurer often ends up with pockets full of cash, crumpled checks and untraceable bank transfers. Some clubs use PayPal but find it difficult to match payments to actual members. The tourlegends - PayPal integration provides a free solution to matching on-line payments to members in an easy to use dashboard whilst maintaining the security of processing payments through PayPal.

In addition to subs many sports clubs collect regular payments either on a monthly or quarterly basis. To reduce the time and effort involved clubs should check out the tourlegends PRM which makes it easy to set up recurring payment requests, automatic reminders and the ability to email members by payment status (eg. Not paid). For those members who choose not to pay online the treasurer can mark them as paid manually. Moreover a total of nine concurrent payment requests can be administered at any one time allowing clubs to collect payments for subscriptions, playing kit, tournament fees, and social events etc at ...
... the same time. All of this is offered as a free service to tourlegends registered users; however normal charges from PayPal apply to receiving and withdrawing funds.

In addition to collecting funds sports clubs and teams need to maintain a register of players and supporters and collect key information for contacting and for administration purposes (e.g. phone number). The tourlegends player registration Management (PRM) module allows clubs to upload existing information via an Excel spreadsheet and then request players to complete additional information on-line. In addition the club official can label three optional fields to collect specific information (shirt size, shirt number, shoe size etc).

Tourlegends is all about connecting clubs globally but also offers great tools to help sports clubs run more efficiently. So why not adopt (for free) a secure, on-line payment module, using PayPal, which links with major credit cards, giving the players and supporters no excuses not to complete payment of their subs on-line - now!
