HomeTeamsONLINE vs SportMember

HomeTeamsONLINE combines sports website building with management tools for teams, leagues, clubs, schools, and tournaments. Organizations can publish schedules, scores, standings, rosters, and archives of past seasons, and use schedule imports, a round-robin wizard, and tournament brackets. The service offers player and team statistics, customizable stats, and built-in statistics for baseball, softball, football, basketball, soccer, hockey, lacrosse, and volleyball. Administrators can email or text groups, with schedule alerts and game reminders available. Champion includes online registration forms without HomeTeamsONLINE per-transaction fees, though payment processing charges from a merchant account may still apply. Payment options listed include PayPal, Venmo, Stripe, Zelle, and Authorize.net; PayPal and Authorize.net payments are tracked automatically, while other payment statuses need to be marked manually. Sites are mobile-friendly and work on phones and tablets without an app. All-Star and Champion include a custom domain with SSL. Rookie is free; Pro-Style costs $90 per year, All-Star $180 per year, and Champion $300 per year. The service has been building sports websites since 2000.

SportMember is a club administration platform for coordinating sports activities, membership fees, websites, club shops, and ticketing. Its website builder provides ready-made pages and a click-and-edit editor, with calendars and news that sync from SportMember without coding. New members can register through the club website, and their details are added to the SportMember system automatically. The feature set also includes a club calendar, member database, team app, webshop, ticket system, booking, attendance tracking, team chat, and lineup builder. The calendar can synchronize with Outlook, iCal, and Google. Widgets connect existing club websites such as WordPress or Wix to a SportMember account. The service is available on Android, iOS, and in a computer browser. The free Basic plan includes a club website and has no add-on options; payment transactions incur £0,35 + 1% of the paid amount. PRO is listed at £0.16 per user/month with a £22.00 monthly minimum, excluding VAT and administration fee. SportMember says member data is stored in the EU with role-limited access.
