Meet Rising Wickets
Where Cricket Communities Come Together
Rising Wickets is a cricket club developing players across skill levels and age groups under one competitive, community-driven program. Managing a growing membership base across training sessions, match schedules, and seasonal dues, the club needed a platform that could keep pace with their ambitions without compounding their administrative burden.
Ease in sports management
The Challenges
Mounting Admin Overhead
The club's admin team spent 10+ hours every week manually managing schedules, tracking payments, and coordinating communications across the membership. With a growing roster, the workload was becoming unsustainable and pulling focus away from cricket operations entirely.
Inconsistent Dues Collection
Monthly and seasonal dues were collected through informal methods with no automated follow-up system in place. Less than 60% of members paid on time, leaving the club's finances unpredictable and admins perpetually chasing outstanding payments.
Fragmented Member Onboarding
Registering new members required manual data entry across multiple spreadsheets with no centralized registration flow. The friction in joining slowed membership growth and created persistent gaps in player records.
Daunting Platform Transition
The club had delayed switching to a sports management platform for months, anticipating a long and disruptive setup process. Every week of delay meant another week of manual operations across every department.
