Coacha&rsquo;s founders are sports coaches themselves and built the software to reduce admin time. Coacha does this through features such as digital registers, automated finances and working by GDPR\/child protection best practice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Coacha noticed that many not-for-profit coaches are paid purely in job satisfaction. This sadly means that some of these clubs can&rsquo;t afford to pay for software to safeguard their members&rsquo; data properly. This is why Coacha are trying to help by giving away &pound;3,000 worth of licenses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">After bringing West Bromwich Albion Academy Development Centre (Gloucestershire) on board back in 2018, Head of Player Development and Talent ID, Paul Gardiner says:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&ldquo;Coacha&rsquo;s GDPR efforts were imperative in our decision to join them. We couldn&rsquo;t find another piece of software with features that were built around GDPR. Coacha immediately put our confidence in their ability to help safeguard our member&rsquo;s data.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Why not-for-profit?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&ldquo;Whilst waiting for board approval of Coacha, one of our coaches said, &lsquo;If they say no, I&rsquo;ll pay for it out of my own pocket&rsquo;.&rdquo; &ndash; Coacha user.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">When asked why they were generously giving away a number of Coacha licenses, Co-Founder, Jason Ayers answered,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&ldquo;We have lots of non-profit clubs on board and find that in order to make their lives easier, many coaches pay for Coacha out of their own pocket as the club can&rsquo;t afford to. Most coaches give up their free time to coach and won&rsquo;t even get paid. We don&rsquo;t think coaches should be using their own money to do something as essential as safeguard their members&rsquo; data. We decided it was time to do something to give back to sport.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>How to apply<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">You can contact Coacha to find out if you&rsquo;re eligible to apply for a free license for your not-for-profit sports club here <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coacha.co.uk\/More\/FREE-Software-for-Non-Profit-Sports-Clubs\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.coacha.co.uk\/More\/FREE-Software-for-Non-Profit-Sports-Clubs<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">If you&rsquo;re not non-profit, but would still like to trial Coacha, you can sign up for a free trial here: <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/my.coacha.app\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/my.coacha.app\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Contact information<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Taylor James &ndash; Marketing Executive <br \/>team@coacha.co.uk<br \/>01242 851300<\/p>\n<p class=\"caps\"><span style='font-size:18px !important'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/coacha.co.uk_47698.html\">Coacha Club Software<\/a><br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> Media Relations<br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=cheltenham-company-gives-away-3000-worth-of-software-to-notforprofit-sports-clubs\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> +44 1242 851300<br \/><strong>City:<\/strong> Cheltenham<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> United Kingdom<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coacha.co.uk\/en-us\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.coacha.co.uk\/en-us<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=cheltenham-company-gives-away-3000-worth-of-software-to-notforprofit-sports-clubs\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A selection of lucky Gloucestershire-based not-for-profit sports clubs are set to receive free licenses of an industry-leading sports club management software from today.
