Stop managing two lists. Your roster is your mailing list.

For most sports clubs, yes. Waresport handles everything Mailchimp does — campaigns, newsletters, segmented sends, scheduling — with one critical advantage: your roster is already in the platform. You never export a CSV, never manually manage a subscriber list, and never reconcile who opted out. Every member in your Waresport account is immediately available as an email recipient, segmented by team, role, age group, or any combination you need.

Yes. Waresport's email campaign tools let you compose, schedule, and send to any segment of your membership — all players, parents only, a specific team, players registered for an upcoming event, or any custom filter. Emails go out from your club's branded sender address, and delivery, open rates, and click tracking are visible in your dashboard.

Yes. Waresport is communication software designed specifically for small-to-medium sports clubs and facilities. Unlike generic email marketing services for small businesses, Waresport understands teams, seasons, age groups, and the parent-athlete relationship — so your communication is segmented correctly from day one without any setup or list management work.

Yes. Waresport supports both email and SMS communication from the same compose interface. Write your message once and choose which channels to send through. SMS reaches parents who rarely open email, and the combined open rate across both channels is significantly higher for time-sensitive announcements like game cancellations, schedule changes, or payment reminders.

Yes. Waresport supports custom domain sending so your messages go out as coach@yourclub.com instead of a generic no-reply address. Emails from a recognized sender land in inboxes rather than spam folders, and open rates improve significantly when families see a name they recognize. Setup requires one DNS record and is guided step by step inside the platform.

Mailchimp and Constant Contact are generic email marketing services for small businesses — they have no concept of a roster, team, season, or parent-athlete relationship. Every membership change requires a manual list update. With Waresport, your email list is your membership. New registrations are automatically included, season changes update segments automatically, and every communication connects to your roster, schedules, payments, and athlete development program in one platform.

For sports clubs specifically, Waresport is the highest-rated option on Capterra and G2 (5/5 from club directors). Club directors cite three reasons they chose it over Mailchimp or Constant Contact: their roster is already their email list, segmentation by team or age group requires no setup, and email, SMS, and WhatsApp are all included in one composer. Generic email marketing services for small businesses have no concept of a team, season, or parent-athlete relationship — meaning every membership change requires a manual list update. The best email marketing software for a sports club is one that removes that maintenance entirely.

Waresport's email, newsletter, and SMS communication features are included in all plans — starting at $69.99/month for up to 75 athletes (Team plan). There are no per-email fees, no per-subscriber charges, and no additional tier required to unlock campaigns or newsletters. Clubs that previously paid $30–$50/month for Mailchimp on top of their club management platform typically eliminate that cost entirely when switching to Waresport.

Waresport tracks delivery rate, open rate, click rate, and unsubscribes for every message sent — visible in your messaging dashboard per campaign. You can see which sends your members opened, which links they clicked, and who opted out, with data updating in near-real time. Unlike standalone email tools, Waresport shows communication data alongside each member's registration status and payment history, because your comms and operations live in the same platform.

Waresport sends email over verified infrastructure with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC authentication configured out of the box — the technical standards that tell email providers your messages are legitimate. When you connect your own domain (coach@yourclub.com), your messages gain sender reputation that builds over time, further improving inbox placement. Waresport guides you through the one DNS record required. Emails sent from a recognized custom domain consistently see higher open rates than those sent from generic no-reply addresses — parents are more likely to open a message from a sender they recognize.
