By the start of the 2027/28 season, Danish club organizers must fully transition to a new digital platform as Tournament Planner shuts down for Danish tournaments.
BadmintonPlayer is rolling out a comprehensive update encompassing new features, a fresh design, and a stronger platform aimed at making administration, tournaments, and activities more efficient for players, clubs, organizers, and administrators across Danish badminton.
A key development area is the introduction of BadmintonPlayer Planner, which is designed to gather the functions currently handled through Tournament Planner. The ambition is to phase out Tournament Planner and create a fully web-based, integrated solution where planning and administration take place directly within the BadmintonPlayer digital universe.
This transition aims to make work easier for club organizers, reduce the need to use multiple systems, and resolve existing problems in Tournament Planner related to planning events across multiple halls. The development process is happening gradually to allow functions to be tested, adapted, and implemented as they become ready, with the complete migration set for the start of the 2027/28 season.
Alongside the upcoming planner, BadmintonPlayer is receiving a visual overhaul to modernize its design and improve the overall user experience without fundamentally altering established workflows. The most visible changes include:
- Updated design: A more uniform and modern expression featuring improvements to menus, buttons, and page structures.
- Administration menu: A new presentation designed to ease navigation between different operational areas while retaining basic functions and principles.
- Login and user experience: An updated login area tailored to match the contemporary design of the rest of the platform.
- “Min profil”: Personal user information and relevant functions gathered into a more legible menu for easier management.
- Bug fixes and adjustments: Minor enhancements implemented based on feedback from users and administrators.
Many of these platform enhancements address previous user feedback regarding errors, shortcomings, and feature requests. While a series of corrections has already been carried out, the upcoming period will focus on further testing and quality assurance before the updated solution officially goes live.
Administrators and test users are encouraged to review their usual operational areas within the platform to identify potential improvements or difficult-to-locate elements, supporting an ongoing evolution that matches the needs of Danish badminton within available resources.
