Angling Matches
Publish fixtures with pegs/sections, entry rules and fees. Record weights on the day, attach images, and publish results in a shareable layout that also feeds your league tables automatically.
Why an angling-specific website builder?
General website tools aren’t designed for clubs that run matches, venues, junior coaching and membership admin. Clubnest’s Website Builder is purpose-built for angling. It ships with blocks for real-world workflows: match lists & results, league tables, venue pages with rules, coaching sessions, and a full Learning Management System (courses, lessons, quizzes, certificates). You still get the flexibility of a modern page builder — drag to reorder, click to edit, publish when ready — but with blocks that speak your language and save you hours.
- Drag-and-drop sections: hero, cards, galleries, FAQs, CTAs.
- Matches & results with auto-scoring into leagues.
- Venue profiles with methods, pegs, access & maps.
- Courses/LMS with lesson progress, quizzes & certificates.
- Optional shop & affiliate cards with outbound tracking.
Made for volunteers
You shouldn’t need a developer to publish fixtures, update a rule, or post results. With Clubnest, stewards, coaches and committee members can safely update the areas they’re responsible for, while your web lead keeps the overall look consistent via the theme builder and reusable page sections.
- Granular roles
- Editors for matches, venues, LMS, blog
- Reusable blocks
- Save a hero/CTA and drop anywhere
- Audit trail
- Know who changed what, when

Everything your angling site needs — built in
Leagues
Configure point systems (section points, drop worst rounds, bonuses). League tables update when results are posted, with automatic tiebreakers and printable summaries.
Fishing Venues
Rich venue pages: species, methods, disabled access, parking, rules, and peg maps. Link venues to matches, tickets and coaching sessions to create a single source of truth.
Coaching Sessions
List junior/adult coaching with times, coaches, locations and ability levels. Connect to permits or course modules to build progression pathways.
Courses / LMS
Create lessons with video, downloads and knowledge checks. Add exams or fun quizzes and issue branded certificates automatically to learners who pass.
Team & Committee
Profiles for officers, coaches and bailiffs with roles, bios and safe contact routes. Great for transparency and safeguarding.
Blog Posts & Guides
Tell stories, rank in search and educate members. Categories, tags, author bios and automatic schema help articles perform on Google.
Sponsors & Partners
Highlight supporters with logos, tiers and links. Track clicks and provide tidy sponsorship pages you can send to prospective partners.
Ecommerce & Affiliate
Sell merchandise or tickets (via Clubnest permits) and surface affiliate products with clean disclosure and outbound tracking. Revenue without compromising trust.
Testimonials & Reviews
Capture social proof from members, parents and visiting anglers. Display as sliders or quote grids with avatars and star ratings.
Newsletter Management
Build subscriber lists, segment by interest (matches, juniors, venues) and send polished updates with built-in templates and unsubscribe compliance.
Theme Builder
Choose colours, set typography and upload logos. Save multiple presets (e.g., winter league vs general site) and switch with one click. Consistent branding, everywhere.
Sell tickets & permits online — natively
Connect your site to Clubnest’s Permit & Ticket Management. Add buy buttons to venue pages, link day tickets from match listings, or offer auto-renewing season permits. Each purchase generates a secure QR for bailiff checks with minimal data shown.
- One-time or auto-renewing products with clear validity windows
- Age groups, concessions and rod-limit rules included
- Apple Pay/Google Pay support via your payment processor
Seamless UX
Buyers never feel “handed off” to a separate system. Your branding and theme carry through checkout and the permit emails. Admins see sales flow into dashboards and can export CSVs when needed.
Built-in SEO & performance
Ranking well in Google starts with clean HTML, fast pages and meaningful content. Clubnest pre-renders pages, optimises images, generates metadata and schema, and provides on-page SEO controls your editors can understand. You focus on great articles, we handle the technical plumbing.
Fast by default
Responsive pages, lazy-loaded media, and caching tuned for high Core Web Vitals scores.
Structured data
Automatic schema for articles, events/matches and courses to enhance search appearance.
Smart suggestions
Inline hints for titles, descriptions and internal linking to grow topical authority.
Security, GDPR & safeguarding
Data minimisation, role-based access, audit logs and secure hosting underpin everything. Editors only see what they need; personal data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Public pages expose content — not private data.
- Granular roles for web admins, coaches and officers
- Encrypted storage & logged changes
- Subject Access Request exports on demand
Accessible by design
WCAG-aware contrast, keyboard-friendly navigation, readable type sizes and alt-text prompts help you deliver an inclusive site for all anglers.

once verified.
Does it handle galleries and media?
Absolutely. Drag in image grids, lightbox galleries and video embeds. Images are optimised and converted to
modern formats automatically for fast loading.
