Sport governing body

Overview

Boccia England is a national governing body and a leader in one of the world’s fastest growing disability sports.

I developed an extensive online system that streamlined many of Boccia England’s business processes, plus additional branding services.

Branding

Refined the organisation's existing brand identity. Introduced a style guide for consistent brand application. Helped with the application of the new style to a range of items.

Competition Management

An end-to-end system, including registration, payments, check-in, match progression, scheduling and live results.

Consideration
There were four international classifications and a further four national classifications, each with different rules and parameters.

Scheduling

Problem
Scheduling matches required a lot of manual work and rework using spreadsheets, often late into the night before a competition.
Solution
Using the new system, organisers can select the total available courts, start and end times, and match duration for the classification. They can drag and drop matches from an automatically created list and place them in the available time slots – a considerable reduction in time and effort. For athletes, match times are published on the website as soon as they are determined.
