League tables and event management
Portsmouth and District LTA organise a series of tennis leagues throughout Hampsire. There are a range of mens and ladies leagues, as well as mixed and masters leagues, that are played throughout the Summer and Winter months.
Client brief
The administrators at Portsmouth LTA were managing their fixture lists and results through a set of spreadsheets and word documents, making the processes of setting up fixtures and recording results time-consuming anf error-prone. Angelfish were commissioned to integrate the processes involved in setting up and managing leagues, teams, fixtures and results into a single administrative system and to integrate this into the Portsmouth LTA website. We were subsequently asked to take over the design and hosting of the entire website.

Angelfish comments
Sports fixtures and results are an area in which bespoke data-driven systems such as those Angelfish specialise in creating really come into their own. The dynamic nature of sports leagues lend themselves perfectly to organisation into a single administative system and the submissions of results allows league tables to be updated in real time.

Secretary, Portsmouth & District Tennis League
Angelfish have created a website and developed bespoke software to administer our District Tennis Leagues. From the minute we started dealing with Paul and his team the pressure of managing the complexity of our leagues was lifted from our shoulders. Since the initial set up Angelfish have enabled us to continue to progress our website with innovative time-saving enhancements, all seamlessly and efficiently delivered. Angelfish are simply a joy and pleasure to deal with!!
