How CrewLAB is organized: Club space vs Team space

Written by CrewLAB Marketing

CrewLAB has two workspaces: a Club space and one or more Team spaces. Knowing which one you're in explains most of what you can see and do.

Team space

A Team space is a single team. Men's Swimming, Women's Rowing, and Juniors XC are three separate Team spaces. Each one has its own:

  • Calendar, events and practice plans

  • Chats

  • Roster and squads

  • Workouts and videos

  • Lineups

  • Analytics

Most day-to-day coaching and training happens here.

Club space

The Club space sits above your teams and connects them. It is a full workspace with its own:

  • Club calendar

  • Chat, including club-wide announcements

  • Members list, covering every team

  • Payments, programs and products

  • Waivers

Clubs are used to register people, collect money, message everyone at once, and see across all teams in one place.

How the two relate

Who it's for

Coaches and athletes

Club administrators, treasurers, board members

Your roles in the two spaces are independent. A treasurer might be a Club Admin and also a Parent in one team. A head coach might be a Coach in two teams and a Club Member.

Do I need a club?

No. A team can use CrewLAB on its own for as long as it likes. Clubs add payments, registration, waivers, and club-wide communication on top of teams that already exist. Nothing about your team changes when a club is added.

How do I get a club?

Clubs aren't created inside the app. CrewLAB sets them up with you, including connecting your existing teams. To set up your club space, book a call with us.

Finding your way around: web vs mobile

CrewLAB works the same on the web app and the mobile app. The features are identical, and only the navigation differs. Web puts everything in a top navigation bar. Mobile uses a bottom bar plus a More menu. Tapping your team name opens the space switcher in both cases.
