We start where PlayHQ stops.
Grade the whole player. Not just the moment.
PlayHQ handles registrations and fixtures at the association level. Sideline Pro handles everything inside the club — coaches, managers, umpires, parents, players and committees in one portal, with proper governance, child safety oversight, and Saturday-morning operational tools.

Grade the whole player.
Not just the moment.
Grading has always been a 45-minute snapshot. A player has a great catch on grading day — but her coach has been rating her catching a 3 all season. Previously, no one in the grading room knew that.
Enter a leg number, get the full story
Type #213 into the grading app. It matches the player and pulls her entire season's coaching reports live into the grading form — before you write a single score.
Mismatch flagging in real time
If your grading score diverges significantly from the coach average, the system flags it immediately. You can still override — but you do it with full context, not a gut feel.
Defensible play-up and play-down decisions
When a parent asks why their daughter was moved down a grade, you have 14 weeks of coaching data to point to — not a memory of one Saturday morning.

PlayHQ is the spine. Sideline Pro is the body.
PlayHQ is great at what it does — registrations, fixtures, association-level draw management. It's not designed for what happens inside a club between Monday and Saturday.
The question every committee should be able to answer.
“Who can see my child's profile?” — Most clubs have no answer. Sideline Pro answers it cleanly, and it's increasingly required at association and state level.
Framework alignment
- Australian Child Safe Sport Standards
- Netball Australia child safety policy
- Australian Privacy Principles (APPs)
- Right-to-be-informed for players aged 12+
Profile access oversight
Every read of a child's profile is logged. Parents and players see exactly who can view their data — coaches, managers, graders, admins.
Multi-source flagging
"I don't recognise this person" flow available to parents, managers and players. Any unusual linkage can be flagged directly from the portal.
Tiered escalation with auto-quarantine
One flag = soft alert to admin. Two independent flags from different sources = automatic quarantine pending review. No manual escalation required.
Player self-visibility at 12+
Players aged 12 and over can see who has access to their profile and raise concerns directly — right-to-be-informed compliance built in.
Full audit trail
Every administrative action, every profile access, every role change is logged with who, when, and why. Soft-delete with required reason on sensitive operations.
Role-intent surfacing
When a new member signs up requesting a coach or manager role, admins see that intent in plain English before approving. No more guessing.
From signed contract to first round in two weeks.
We set up your club's instance
Branded portal, your logo, your colours. Configured for your club's structure and playing levels.
Import members and history
PlayHQ CSV import for fixtures, players and parents. Existing data carries over — no re-entry.
Train committee and coaches
One session with your admin team, one with coaches and managers. Most are up and running in an afternoon.
Your season runs on Sideline Pro
From grading weekend to grand final. We're here throughout your first season.
Built by a volunteer. Proven on a real club.
Battle-tested across a full season
Not a pitch deck — Seaforth Netball Club ran their entire 2026 season on Sideline Pro. Every workflow tested by real coaches, real managers, real parents on real Saturdays.
Built for community sport budgets
A 600-active-user club pays ~$600/year after setup. Most clubs recoup that in the first month by replacing tools they were already paying for separately.
Female athlete safety built in
ACL and knee injuries hit netball hard. Sideline Pro ships with a proven prevention program, structured warmups and incident logging — as part of the core, not an add-on.
Your data, your domain, your brand
Each club gets their own branded instance. Export anything, anytime. No lock-in, no shared databases, no surprises.
“We were using spreadsheets, WhatsApp groups, and paper forms. Now everything lives in one place. Our volunteers actually thank us.”
