Encouraging movement
SportMeter helps athletes, parents, volunteers, and clubs to participate in sports activities in an accessible way, so that movement gets a permanent place in daily life.
Pilot objective: Making movement easier to start and to sustain, by simplifying orientation, participation, and returning.
Target group: athletes, parents/caregivers, volunteers, coaches, and club board members.
Pilot duration: Minimum of 6 months.
Web application: SportMeter Tool
SportMeter makes local sports offerings visible and lowers the threshold to truly participate. By making the step from ‘watching and orienting’ to ‘being present and coming back’ easier, we help movement grow not as a separate intention, but as a routine.
Why we are pushing forward here
We want to make the threshold to visit sports and inspirational events in the neighbourhood as low as possible. Think of trial sports with a punch card, low-threshold activities to simply come and take a look, and local top matches you can attend with friends. This is not only for starting athletes, but also for people who used to do sports and want to pick up the social aspect and routine again. There is often much more to experience in the area than we think, if you can easily find the offerings and join without hassle.
How does it work?
For athletes, parents/caregivers, volunteers, coaches, and club board members: first get acquainted, then participate, then return more easily. In one overview, you see what is happening nearby by filtering on location, sport, target group, and date. You choose an activity nearby and read practical information, with one clear button: participate via the SportMeter app. What does this mean for me?
Athlete: You find something fun nearby, participate without hassle, and immediately see what your next step can be.
Parent/caregiver: You arrange participation clearly and keep practical information at hand, without extra ‘hassle’ on location.
Volunteer/coach: You see who is coming, receive people more quickly, and can more easily follow up on who needs extra attention.
Club board member: You gain insight into intake, capacity, and follow-up, so that participation does not remain a matter of chance.
Together for Impact
The strength of SportMeter lies in simplicity and repeatability: people see what is possible, participate right away, and then receive a clear next step. In this way, athletes, parents, volunteers, coaches, and clubs together build an environment in which movement becomes more natural, intake is better integrated, and enjoyment of sport forms the basis for continuing to come back.
