Life without an operating system
How most clubs run today
- Registrations arriving in a WhatsApp thread and a paper form
- Subs chased by hand, every month, by one exhausted volunteer
- Fixtures posted three times — website, group chat, printed sheet
- Kit orders on a spreadsheet, sizes guessed, money unaccounted for
- Player progress remembered in a coach’s head, never recorded
- Parents asking the same six questions every single week
