SNZ IT Platform

The development of the IT Platform(SIT) was highlighted by the Squash New Zealand Strategic Plan in 2008 as a key driver for the development of squash in New Zealand. It is seen as an innovative use of technology as an enabler to clubs and as a sport development tool and will enable squash to work together. Once implemented the IT platform will have massive benefits for users and clubs with a range of tools that will improve their efficiency. It will not just be an access system but will incorporate event  and club management tools.

To date the follwoing modules have been developed and released - 

1. Membership: Database information.  This database contains the Squash NZ membership and feeds the other project modules.

2. Grading: The grading list is a live system with the ability for results to be entered from clubs and districts. The result will mean a system that provides current data without delays.

3. Grading Results Entry: The initial mechanism to enter results.

4. Online Court Booking: A booking system for clubs to use for internal members initially allowing clubs to manage court usage.

5. Interclub: Software developed to help district to operate Interclub competition and have the results, draws, and standings all online with results connecting to the grading list.

Currently under development are the following modules which will be released in the next few months once testing is complete -

1. Tournament online entry: Online tournament entry with online payment.

2. Competition Management: Tournament draws and management system linking to online entry and the grading list.

3. Access and Security: An online access system linked to the court booking and membership systems allowing clubs to provide for the play for pay market.

If your club is looking at any software purchase or access system, please contact Squash New Zealand so they can take advantage of the system.
