Simple Tech Plan for the AMCF

What We Want to Do

We want to create a new tech system for the Australian Medieval Combat Federation (AMCF). This system will help all Buhurt clubs in Australia work better together and grow. It will be built using Wix.

 

​

Our Goals:

 

1. One Main Website:

We’ll make a big website for all Buhurt clubs in Australia. It will make things easier for everyone.

 

2. Manage Members Better:

We’ll use Wix to keep track of all our members and make it easier for clubs to talk to each other.

 

3. Help Clubs Learn and Grow:

The website will have lots of videos and guides to help clubs learn and manage their activities better.

 

4. Make Joining Easier:

New members can sign up online, agree to legal stuff, and get ready for their first training easily.

 

5. Make Money for Clubs:

We’ll add tools to help clubs make money, like an Armour Selector and club merch stores.

 

6. Stay Safe and Legal:

We’ll make sure all clubs follow safety and insurance rules.

 

7. Start New Clubs:

We’ll help new clubs get started with guides and help applying for grants.

 

8. Talk to Everyone:

We’ll keep talking to all members to make sure the system meets their needs.
