Overview
Providing accurate and thorough fixture details keeps everyone informed from players to officials and supporters. Fixture changes do happen so it's important to be able to update those quickly on the Club Website and Club App.
If a fixture's status changes, for example, a fixture has been cancelled, users associated with that fixture will receive an email and a push notification, if they're using the Pitchero Club app, to inform them of the fixture change.
A direct message will also be sent to reduce the chance to someone not seeing the fixture change.
