A limit per session
Cap track nights and coached sessions at what one coach can handle. Extra runners join the waitlist.
Coached sessions your runners book themselves
The Tuesday track session has room for twenty, the Thursday intervals for fifteen, and the Sunday long run is free for members. Groopla puts every session on one booking page with its own limit, takes payment where you charge, and tells runners where and when to meet.
Free and paid sessions
Keep social runs free to book and charge for coached sessions, on the same timetable.
Memberships and packs
Sell a monthly or season pass, or a pack of coached sessions, paid by card into your own Stripe account.
Where to meet
Add your track or regular start as a location, or put the meeting point in the session’s description.
Reminders with the details
Runners get a text the day before and two hours before, with a link to their booking.
Coaches and run leaders
Give coaches their own login to see who’s coming and mark attendance at the start.
One timetable for the whole club
Each type of session, from beginner groups to intervals and long runs, is its own activity with a capacity, a price or none, and a coach. Set it up once and it repeats every week.
Runners book from one link with their phone number and a texted code. When plans change, they cancel themselves, and the next runner on the waitlist gets the place.
Know who turned up
Coaches mark attendance at the start, and reports show how full each session is, the busiest time slots and your most regular runners, which helps when you plan next season’s coaching.
Questions
Can members join for free and pay only for coaching?
Yes. Leave the price off social runs and set one on coached sessions, or sell a pass that covers them.
Do you handle race entries or affiliation numbers?
No. Groopla handles the session timetable, bookings, passes and payments.
What does it cost?
Free covers up to 20 active members a month; paid plans start at €25 a month, priced by the members who book.
