Short, focused walkthroughs of the workflows your club runs every week.
-
Onboarding
Getting Started with Rook Ready
Create your club, set up your profile, and get ready to add your first member. About 5 minutes.
-
Roster
Adding Members to Your Club
Three ways to get your roster into Rook Ready — one at a time, bulk CSV, or invitations. About 10 minutes for a typical small club.
-
Events
Creating Your First Event
Fill out the event form, publish, and your club has its first event on the calendar — about 5 minutes from blank slate to published. Sets you up to record attendance next.
-
Attendance
Recording Attendance
Mark Present, Absent, Late, or Excused for every member at an event — bulk by default, individual where it matters. About 2 minutes per event.
-
Communication
Sending Announcements
Compose, scope, schedule, and send messages to your club — about 3 minutes for a typical announcement. Keep members in the loop without spinning up an event.
-
Forms
Building Registration Forms
Build a public sign-up form, share the link, and review submissions — about 5 minutes to publish, then review as they roll in. A Rook plan feature.
-
Member data
Defining Custom Fields
Capture data specific to your club — USCF ratings, school grades, dietary restrictions, anything default member fields don't cover. About 2 minutes per field. Pawn includes 5 fields; Rook is unlimited.
-
Billing
Billing & Subscription
Pawn is free for clubs up to 30 members. Rook unlocks unlimited members and the rest of the features. About 5 minutes to set up a paid plan; cancel anytime.
