  • The website homepage typically includes an eye catching full screen image slider with overlay captions, a news section, a What's-On Calendar, and details of the Club's teams.
  • There is searchable Image Gallery, which can be added to by Photographer Administrators.
  • Both the design of a clubs's Play-Cricket website and own website are made harmonious.
  • Navigation in both websites cross link and compliment each other.
  • All parts of the website are responsively designed making it possible for to use with any device, ranging from a desktop computer down to a mobile phone.

Our club website solution has been piloted by Moseley Cricket Club and Kidderminster Cricket Club over the past 3 years. During this time both clubs have benefited from a significant increase in bookings for the facilities they hire out.

Hosting & Development

Exceptional performance is achieved with our club websites by ensuring that all areas are built expertly using the latest components and services available through Microsoft.

This includes:

  • We use the latest version of Dot Net, jQuery, JavaScript, Kendo UI, and Azure NuGet Code packages to build our club websites.
  • We use Kendo UI and JQuery to build rich and user-friendly interfaces driven by the site's data. In particular this procures fantastic data grids and charts.
  • Each club website has its own dedicated Microsoft SQL Server database, that is firewall protected and backed up daily.
  • Club websites are hosted with Azure, have scalable resources, and effectively unlimited capacity to upload and store files.
  • Club websites are backed up daily by Azure and a further copy of the latest version of the site is kept by WWD using GitHub.

A big advantage of our club websites is that whilst a club site starts out with similar core design and functionality it can be customised precisely to fit a club's own requirements, which can be further adapted over time.

API

Our cricket club websites incorporate a unique API Adapter that communicates with the Play-Cricket API to import all necessary data.

This works as follows:

  • Each cricket club solution contains an API Adapter Project that incorprates functions that call the various Play-Cricket API endpoints.
  • An Azure API Function for each club uses CRON scheduling to call the Play-Cricket API typically once a week during the cricket season.
  • When the Play-Cricket API is called the data returned in JSON format is extracted and inserted in to a number of staging tables in the club's database.
  • The data in the staging tables is used by a number of scheduled stored procedures to update the main database tables.
  • In practical terms this leads to new fixtures being added, changes in fixtures being updated, and match result details being imported.
  • Imported Play-Cricket fixture ID's are used in the club website to open scorecards in the Play-Cricket site from both Fixtures and Results pages.
  • Another benefit is that the home page Calendar automatically displays all the latest fixtures.

Our API Adapter has been working flawlessly for Moseley Cricket Club and Kidderminster Cricket Club in the past 3 years.
