About Spike

Spike exists because running an amateur volleyball club is an unpaid admin job nobody applied for. The person doing it is usually a player who volunteered, holding the club together with a group chat, a spreadsheet and their own bank account.

That setup breaks in predictable ways. Sessions get booked for players who never really confirmed. Fees quietly go uncollected and come out of someone’s own pocket. Members drift away and nobody notices until they have gone. None of it is hard work — it is just scattered across four places, and only one person knows where.

So Spike puts it in one place: the membership list, the roles, the schedule with position-based rosters, the fees, the training plans, the evaluations and the chat. It is built for volleyball specifically rather than for every sport at once, because a line-up of six people who all play middle is not a team, and a generic headcount cannot tell you that.

It is free for clubs, and it stays free — no member limit, no trial. Spike earns a share of the payments that move through it, which means it only makes money when a club is running sessions that people turn up to and pay for. A club that never charges for anything never pays anything.

Spike is made by Bielov Software Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales. It is early, and it is honest about that: the roadmap lists what is still missing as plainly as the rest of the site lists what works.
