Consistent and timely communication is essential for every club. Members want clarity about training sessions, competitions, events, volunteer opportunities, and other important matters. Yet, many clubs still send out their messages last minute. This may seem practical, but it can lead to confusion, missed activities, and frustrated members. When information is shared too late or incompletely, not only does engagement decline but it also undermines the organization’s efficiency.
Good communication requires forethought. By scheduling announcements and push notifications in advance, an association can ensure that information reaches the right members at the right time. This creates a sense of calm, clarity, and a professional image. Members perceive the association as well-organized and reliable, which strengthens trust and engagement.
Scheduling announcements as a smart solution
Planning communications offers a clear solution to common problems within associations. Instead of sending out ad hoc messages, announcements can be prepared in advance and sent automatically. This eliminates the need to remember to send a message at the last minute, significantly reducing the risk of forgotten or incorrect communication.
For members, this means they know in a timely manner what to expect. For administrators and board members, it means less stress and more time to focus on other tasks, such as organizing training sessions, events, or supervising volunteers.
Digipas makes planning simple and clear
With Digipas.app, administrators can prepare announcements and push notifications days, weeks, or even months in advance. All important communications can be scheduled in advance in a single, clear dashboard. This ensures that communications are automatically updated during busy periods, such as the start of a new season or a major event.

- Examples of messages that can easily be scheduled:
- Monthly news items or updates from the board
- Informatie voorafgaand aan evenementen, zoals locatie, tijdstip en benodigde materialen

Combined with Digipas’ segmentation features, these messages can also be targeted to specific groups of members. Players, coaches, volunteers, or parents receive only the information relevant to them. This makes communication not only more efficient but also more personalized and valuable.
The benefits of planning ahead
Scheduling push notifications in advance offers several benefits for both administrators and members:
- Fewer errors and miscommunication
Preparing messages ahead of time gives you more time to review them. This reduces the risk of typos, incorrect timing, or unclear information.
- Higher reliability
Members know they’ll be informed consistently and promptly. This increases trust in the organization and prevents uncertainty.
- Professional appearance
An association with well-organized communications exudes professionalism. This is not only beneficial for members, but also for sponsors and external partners.
- Time savings for administrators
During busy periods, welcome messages, reminders and updates can be sent automatically, without any additional manual intervention.
Practical example from practice
Suppose a hockey club wants to inform both players and volunteers at the start of the season. With Digipas, all training reminders, team updates, and volunteer calls can be scheduled in advance. Members receive their messages precisely when they need them, while the board can focus on organizing the season instead of daily communication.
