What you get today
Every club on SwimWin has a public website at its own address. It is server-rendered, fast, and it carries:
- Your club's name and wordmark
- Your brand colour, applied throughout
- Join — the public registration form
- Sign in for families who already have accounts
- Opening hours, if you have published them
- A contact address and email, if you have published them
It is honest rather than flashy. There is no invented location, no placeholder schedule and no "we have 400 families" on a club that does not.
Your brand colour, and the one thing it cannot recolour
A club's brand colour replaces SwimWin's accent everywhere — buttons, links, the wordmark, focus rings, and the branding on the emails your club sends.
It does not touch the green / yellow / red safety vocabulary. A club cannot make "blocked" look reassuring, not by picking a soft colour, not by accident, and not by a well-meaning admin who thinks red looks alarming at the front desk. Those three colours are compiled in and there is no property to override.
Two addresses, and the second one matters
Your club has a web address and an API address, and they are set up together. Everything a person does in a browser — the public site, signing in, and the Website, Roster and every other staff screen — happens on the web address. The API address is what the SwimWin mobile app talks to. If you are pointing your own domain at SwimWin, both are needed; SwimWin sets both up.
Photographs of children go through a fence, not a filter
Any photograph that shows an identifiable child has to clear photo review before it can appear publicly. That is a separate permission from building the site, deliberately: the person who edits the pages is often a parent, and whoever builds the site should not be the person who decides other families' children may appear on it.
If a consent is missing, withdrawn or expired, the photograph is blocked — not quietly dropped from a page, but refused with a reason, so somebody can fix it.
What is not built yet
A team store. Selling kit and merchandise through the site is not built; see Team store.
