Hi!
So I am in the planning phase of a new wordpress site for a sports club. They have a list of requirements which I am looking into, i wondered if anyone here had any experience of similar features which they would like to share. Other then the standard pages, the club requires;
I also have a couple of questions regarding the individual plug ins which I think could be an option for the above, these are woo commerce plug ins, however some of them seem to perform similar tasks, and hence may be over the top?:
WooCommerce Subscription
WooCommerce Subscriptions - WooThemes
The site only requires one subscription, the membership renewal, is this plug in overkill? What is the alternative.
WooCommerce Memberships
WooCommerce Memberships - WooThemes
Will this allow members with the right permissions to look up other members details? I essentially need a membership list to show members.
Newsletter Subscription
Newsletter Subscription - WooThemes
I'm not sure I need this, wouldn't WooCommerce Memberships have a similar feature to automatically sign up member's to newsletters?
Events calendar
https://theeventscalendar.com/product/wordpress-events-calendar-pro/
This looks like it will handle the events section of the site very well, any opinions on how good it is?
As for the rest, I thought the training calendar section could be run by google, alternatively it could just be a recurring event of the events calendar? Plus, Facebook could handle membership communications maybe? Although I like the idea of having a single email address a member can just email and that is pushed to all signed up members. But this seems way more complicated to implement then previously imagined.
I welcome other suggestions, thanks

- New membership sign up process
- Training calendar
- New membership communication process
- Events sign up
- Shop to pay for various items (events, membership etc..)
- Custom event email lists
