The club offers outdoor and indoor bowls (pennant and social), duplicate bridge with beginner classes twice yearly, pickleball, craft (2nd Monday), mahjong (2nd and 4th Fridays), a lending library, garden plots, and a busy social events calendar. Coaching programs welcome beginners to bowls. Membership: $280 Full, $200 Dual (affiliated with another club), $140 Intermediate (under 25), $40 Junior (13–17), $80 Social/Non-Bowling. All bowling categories include Bowls Victoria affiliation fees. Contact: Stephen Clarke (nebyn@outlook.com).

Running a multi-activity club with 5 membership tiers ($40–$280) means managing bowlers alongside bridge, pickleball, craft, and mahjong groups, scheduling pennant matches and social activities on different days, coordinating coaching programs for beginners, processing Bowls Victoria affiliation fees, and maintaining event bookings — all with a volunteer committee.

TidyHQ runs 5 membership tiers with Bowls Victoria fees included, event scheduling across all activities, meeting records for committee governance, and communications — powered by a custom domain at northbalwynbowls.com and custom mail domain with Google Analytics tracking. With 840 emails sent, the platform is central to the club's operations.

Volunteer time is finite. North Balwyn Bowls Club now spends it where it matters — on their members, not on admin.

• ~370 — Members across 5 tiers

From their public website to membership renewals to event management, North Balwyn Bowls Club handles it all from one dashboard. New committee members inherit a working system, not a collection of logins and spreadsheets.
