Software for amateur rugby clubs

Rugby Union and Rugby Sevens are not the same sport.

They share an oval ball, and that's about it. Paak already manages your members, payments, teams and compliance. For rugby, it goes further: XV and Sevens treated as two distinct disciplines — different statistics, different sanctions, different match lengths, and federation licences.

  • XV vs Sevens — the tracker swaps its stat buttons by active discipline
  • Per-discipline sanctions — yellow card 10 min in XV, 2 min in Sevens, applied automatically
  • Federation licences & qualifications — tracked with automatic expiry alerts

Free up to 100 members. No credit card. Setup in 30 seconds.

01 · Two configurations

XV and Sevens, two separate configurations.

Not a "number of players" dropdown. The tracker swaps its stat buttons by active discipline, the match clock follows the regulatory duration, sanctions apply the right exclusion length.

  • XV mode — 11 stats, 4 sanctions, numbered positions 1-23, AI advisor Renaud Sauvage (Paak Pro)
  • Sevens mode — 8 stats, 3 sanctions, 7 positions configured, AI advisor Damien Loret (Paak Pro)
  • Yellow card 10 min XV / 2 min Sevens — the difference is enormous on a short match, Paak applies the right duration

The match log

The score, in rugby terminology.

No invented stats: exactly the events a rugby coach needs to log. The active discipline determines the stat buttons, the clock and the duration of sanctions.

Honest scope

What Paak doesn't do (yet).

Tournaments and competition management

Paak does not yet dedicatedly manage Sevens tournament brackets (pools + knockout phase on a single day) or Union league standings with tie-breakers. Individual matches are tracked, but competition-level aggregation remains manual. On the roadmap.

Direct federation licence-portal integration

Most national federation licence portals don't expose public APIs. Licences must therefore be entered in Paak (or imported via CSV from a federation export). Automatic sync doesn't exist — and cannot exist unless the federation opens its API. This is a federation limitation, not a Paak limitation.

The equipment

Equipment and online sales.

Paak adds an Equipment module that generic club tools don't ship. Two flows in the same table: match kit issued at season start and returned in June (numbered jerseys, shorts, socks, balls), and club catalogue sold online (tracksuits, hoodies, polos, branded bags) with Mollie payment links, VAT split, and automated reminders on unpaid kit.

Distribute

Coach distributes kit from the phone. Price optional.

Mollie link

If priced, Paak sends a Mollie link. Card or SEPA, two clicks.

Paid, accounted

Status flips automatically, VAT split recorded, auto-reminder on delay.

Compliance · Coach honorabilité (French law)

French loi du 8 mars 2024 — tracked for you.

The French law of 8 March 2024 makes club presidents personally liable for the honorabilité (background-check status) of every coach, official and adult volunteer in regular contact with minors — in rugby, this covers the head coach, assistants, école de rugby animators, touch judges, assistant referees and any club volunteer present at U6 / U8 / U10 / U12 / U14 / U16 / U19 sessions. Paak makes that tenable for a volunteer-run club.

  • Status per coach — valid / expiring soon / expired
  • Automatic reminders 30, 14 and 7 days before each attestation expires — email to the coach and notification to the president
  • CSV export in the ministry SI Honorabilité / FIJAISV column order, one click
  • Federation licence (FFR) and medical certificate on the same coach profile

Frequently asked questions

Does Paak actually distinguish XV from Sevens?

Yes. Two fully separate configurations in code (since April 2026): separate stats, separate sanctions, separate durations, separate formations. A club that plays both activates both disciplines and each match loads the correct configuration.

Are the 15 XV positions tracked separately?

Yes, with their regulatory numbers (1 through 15 for starters, 16-23 for bench). A player can have a primary position and secondary positions (e.g. versatile 6/7 flanker).

Is the 10-min / 2-min yellow-card rule handled?

The referee logs the yellow card in the live tracker. The duration (10 min XV / 2 min Sevens) is documented in the discipline configuration; the referee tracks the player's return on the match clock. The fully automatic per-player sin-bin timer with auto-return-to-pitch is on the roadmap — today this auto-countdown timer ships in handball only (2-min suspension).

Are set-piece stats (scrums, lineouts, mauls) tracked?

In XV yes: lineouts won, mauls driven, breakdown steals, turnovers won (scrums are a collective pack effort, not an individual stat). In Sevens we track line breaks and offloads instead — set-pieces aren't contested there and don't carry the same information.

Are licences and qualifications tracked?

Yes. Licence number, age category, referee grades (club to federal), coaching qualifications (BE Fed, BPJEPS, DEJEPS, DESJEPS in France; adaptable to other federations). Manual entry or CSV import — no automatic sync with federation licence portals, as they don't expose public APIs.

How does Paak distinguish issued kit from sold catalogue?

The Equipment module manages both flows in the same table. Issued: numbered jerseys, shorts, socks, training balls — assigned in September, return tracked in June, payment method 'free'. Sold: tracksuits, hoodies, polos, bags — same distribution, but with a price and a payment method. The module's filter separates the two views when you want to see one or the other.

Can clubs sell tracksuits and club kit online through Paak?

Yes. At every distribution with a price, you pick the payment method: Mollie online link (card or SEPA), cash, check, bank transfer, or free. With Mollie, Paak generates the payment link automatically, the paid status flips on its own, and the VAT split is recorded for the club's accounting. If payment drags on, an automatic reminder goes out on its own.
