Players can track their personal statistics, follow their favourite teams, and receive club communications directly through the app. This creates a connected community experience that keeps everyone engaged, even when they can't attend games in person, while building a deeper relationship between grassroots rugby and the broader rugby community.

Players outside the eligible age range can be flagged or prevented from registering, depending on configuration. The platform can also manage age-grade transitions year-over-year, automatically moving players to appropriate competitions as they age.
