Scheduling Activities

Providing an effective timetable can have a huge effect on getting more people into your club across all time slots on every day of the week. The best way of achieving this is to meet the needs of your members by offering the types of programmes they want, on the right days and at the right times. Group programmes are a proven and effective way to get people through the door. Nothing beats group activities for creating a social and connected atmosphere within your facility – and for encouraging new people to join so they can be part of the fun and the community you are building.
