The Short Mat Players Tour started in 2011. I came on board in 2012 to look after the online presence of the brand. Since then the website has gone from strength-to-strength with many new innovations that has pushed the sport of short mat bowls forward.
One of the first features I implemented was the ability for players to enter online. While a common feature in other sports, short mat bowls was lagging behind. Giving players peace of mind that they had their place guaranteed after they had paid the entry fee and receiving a confirmation email.
Using the Buddypress plugin I managed to integrate a profile feature for all players that use the online entry system. This allows players to upload a profile picture as well as providing information about themselves such as age, club & achievements.
