Clubs and tenancy
Each club is its own space on a subdomain or custom domain, with data isolated per club - while your account is shared across them.
Every club on Rowbot is its own self-contained space. A club lives at its own web
address - a subdomain like lorc.rowbot.app, or a custom domain the club has set up, such
as members.lorc.org.uk. Rowbot works out which club you're in from that address, then
shows you that club's schedule, members, equipment and finances - and nobody else's.
Data is isolated, your account isn't
The important distinction: a club's data is private to that club, but your account is shared across every club you belong to.
That means a club's outings, lineups, members, payments and settings never leak between clubs. A coach at one club can't see another club's athletes. But you - your login, your name, your training history - are a single account that follows you wherever you row.
Think of it like a building with many clubs inside. Each club has its own locked room and its own keys; you carry one keyring that opens the rooms you're a member of.
An example
Suppose Sam rows for two clubs. At their university club Sam is a squad captain; at their city club Sam is an ordinary member. Sam signs in once with a single account and switches between the two. In the university club Sam can build lineups; in the city club Sam can only sign up for outings. Same person, same login - different club, different role, and completely separate data.
What this means in practice
- You log in once and move between clubs you belong to - see Accounts and login.
- Your role can differ in each club, because roles belong to the club, not to you - see Roles and permissions.
- A club's committee controls that club's setup, branding and which features are on - see Club setup.
- Bookmark your club's address; if your club uses a custom domain, that address works just
the same as a
rowbot.appone.
