A club website that keeps itself up to date
Your runs, routes, races and news come straight from the calendar your committee already keeps on Club Routes. Here's everything you need to decide, on one page.
No card needed for the trial. £235 a year, or £23.50 a month, including VAT, if you keep it.
clubroutes.com/websites
A proper website, without a volunteer keeping it alive
Fills itself
The next club run, this week's runs from every group, what's on for eight weeks, your race calendar and your favourite routes with maps, all straight from Club Routes.
Your look
Your logo and club colour in one of three looks, always checked so the words and buttons stay easy to read, on phones and computers.
Your address
Your own address, like www.yourclub.org.uk, or yourclub.clubroutes.com. Your old website's links can point to the new pages, so search results keep working.
Pages and news
Join, contact, committee and kit pages to start from, news posts with photos, galleries, documents, videos, questions and answers, sponsors' logos and a contact form.
Race results
Host your race's results year by year, with course records and a search for any runner, and people can ask for their name to be hidden.
Safe to change
Change it on a computer or phone with a preview beside you. Nothing is public until you publish, you can share a private draft, and go back to any earlier version.
Live in an evening, not a season
Start the free trial
Any committee member can start it in a couple of minutes. No card, and nothing is charged unless you choose a plan.
Make it yours
Your logo, colour and photos, and words on the starting pages. Everything to do with runs and routes is already filled in.
Connect and publish
Point your web address at it (the help shows how, step by step) and publish. Ask other committee members to help as website editors.
One price, everything included
Or £23.50 a month, including VAT. Free for the first 30 days. A VAT invoice for every payment, sent to whoever looks after the club's money.

- Your own web address, or a free clubroutes.com one
- As many pages, news posts and photos as you need
- Contact form, privacy page and cookie notice written for you
- Club Routes itself, free: routes, the calendar and check-in for members
- Cancel any time: a paid plan runs to the end of what's paid
Before you decide
Who owns the website and our address?
The club does. Your web address stays registered to you wherever it is now: you point it at Club Routes, and can point it away again. The words and photos are yours, and the committee can download everything at any time.
What happens when our website volunteer steps down?
Nothing breaks. Nobody's personal login holds the website: anyone the committee gives the Website editor role can change it, and the parts about runs and routes keep themselves up to date anyway.
Do we need anyone technical?
No. If you can write an email you can change a page: words, bold, links and lists without codes, photos from your phone, and a check before publishing that says in plain words what's about to go live. Connecting your own address is the one technical step, and the help walks you through it, or send it to whoever looks after your domain.
We already have a website. Can we bring it?
Yes. Your old pages' addresses can point to the new ones, so links and search results keep working. Questions about moving yours? Ask us.
Can new members join and pay through it?
Your Join page can link to the system you use now, such as Membermojo or England Athletics. Club Routes Membership, with joining and paying on your own website, is coming next.
What about privacy and GDPR?
Each website comes with a privacy page and cookie notice written for it. There's no tracking unless you add your own Google Analytics, and the cookie notice asks visitors first. Contact form messages are kept for 90 days. Our data processing agreement covers the club's data.
Is it accessible?
Every look is built to be easy to read: any club colour is adjusted so words and buttons stand out, pages work on phones, and photos have space to say what they show.
What if we stop?
A cancelled plan runs to the end of the period you've paid for. Then your club goes back to the free Routes plan, and we keep your website for 12 months in case you change your mind. See the terms.
