Club groups, conversations and organising

Keep the club chat with the rugby.

The team chat, Saturday’s lifts and the vote on the end-of-season do. Give each group its own conversation, keep match details with the fixture and turn the decisions into jobs people can take on.

Club and team groups

Separate groups. The same club.

Keep club announcements, squad messages and tour planning organised, with membership and permissions suited to each group.

Club news everyone can find

Post results, club news and celebrations in the club feed. Use announcements for the updates members need to see.

Groups for squads, parents and volunteers

Set up groups for squads, coaches, parents and tours. Team and role groups follow club membership; members can choose their interest groups.

A conversation for each match or plan

Open the conversation from the fixture, session, tournament or task. Find it again with your other groups in Social & comms.

Fixtures and decisions

Open the fixture. Find the conversation.

A match conversation is the same whether you open it from Games or Social & comms. Replies, polls and agreed plans stay together.

Games and group conversations

Keep the plan beside the rugby

Keep meet times, lifts and questions with the fixture. Turn a message into a task, assign it to someone and check its progress from the same conversation.

Built-in polls and decisions

Get from “who’s up for it?” to a plan

Compare dates, choose one or several options, or rank the ideas. Set a closing date and send a reminder before it closes. Confirm the decision, then turn it into an event or task.

Private squad conversations and public supporter comments have separate audiences. Sharing a link to a private conversation doesn’t give new people access.

Tournaments and visiting teams

Give visiting teams the updates they need

Keep host announcements, team groups and match conversations with the tournament. Visiting adults can join the event’s shared social group to meet other teams, share photos and plan the evening.

Guest access has a closing date and is moderated by the host. Your own club’s trip conversation stays with its calendar entry, ready to refer to when you plan the next one.

More ways to join in

From a spare seat to the season’s last social

Claim the jobs, welcome new members and keep the useful messages close to hand.

Claim a lift, a shift or something to bring

Add spare seats, volunteer jobs or a list of things to bring. Members can claim a place or return it if plans change, with waiting lists for full slots.

Find what still needs your reply

Your catch-up list shows unanswered polls, mentions, accepted jobs and confirmed decisions. Open any item to return to its conversation.

Give new members a name to ask for

Add new members to their team groups, assign a buddy and share a short welcome checklist. Pin the meet time and what to bring for their first session.

Share the result and thank the people behind it

Run the player-of-the-match vote, post a milestone and thank the volunteers. Share match photos and short clips using members’ recorded photo choices.

Choose which notifications to receive

Follow every update, receive mentions only or choose a digest for each group. Set quiet hours, with urgent fixture changes clearly marked.

Find the plan after the chat moves on

Search your groups, matches and tournaments. Pin directions, save useful posts and keep confirmed decisions for next week or next season.

Group permissions and safeguarding

Choose who can join, post and moderate.

Set permissions for each group. Age-grade conversations use guardian and approved group routes, separate from adult tournament social groups. Members can report concerns, block contact and use private welfare routes; recorded photo choices apply when sharing images.

Moving the club conversations across

Can we bring our WhatsApp message history into Ruckr?

No. You can share a Ruckr update as text or a link in WhatsApp while members move across, but message history and replies don’t sync between the two. The current fixture, poll or task stays in Ruckr, so members have a place to check the latest plan.

Can members vote privately?

Yes. Set a poll to named, private to the organiser or anonymous before voting opens. Anonymous polls show totals and send reminders to the full audience. Group messages and polls are included in both club plans.
