Easily get event listings for sporting events and athletic or multisport type races (e.g. half marathons, swimming, cycling, orienteering, kayaking, ironman and triathlon etc) from your local region.

First see http://www.onesportevent.com/events or http://www.wmc.org.nz/ (events tab) for a couple of live examples. If you'd like this functionality too then install the plug-in.

Creates instant content for your web visitors to browse so they spend more time on your website and are more likely to come back.

The event calendars default style is defined by css, and you can use your own stylsheet of course; post a forum message on http://www.onesportevent.com if you need help or if you have improvement suggestions.

Events come from a free shared database which you can add and edit, and the plug-in allows you to specify your own CSS so you can have full control over the styling, branding and functionality. The administration options allows you to customise which events are displayed and to enable/disable different user filtering functionality.

Can also be used to list your members club-only events if you have an event that is one of the activities in the FAQ section. It's not intended as a full on event management system! But the nice thing is you can optionally promote your club events for free on an entire network of websites so more people are likely to see your club event and come along.

Features are

  • Easy and instantly available. Install the plug-in and events appear on your website instantly
  • Flexible - configure which areas, event types and activities you want to see
  • Always updated - as event organizers have one place to maintain events for multiple websites
  • Event details - also drill through to specific event details, still on your website!
  • Multiple filtering options - onroad, offroad, cycling, running, triathlon, you name it!
  • Valid XHTML - Valid CSS based output works with all web browsers
  • Club events - promote your club events for free on multiple web sites
  • No data charges - content is served directly from the shared web server to your customer
  • High performance - your website renders first and multiple connections allow parallel downloads
  • Internet, MSN and telephone support, just drop me a line for my personal MSN
  • Map integration - Coming soon! - drill through to see an events actual course route on the map
