Single-job tools
Each utility does one thing properly. No dashboards inside dashboards. No "modules" you'll never enable.
Small utilities · Grassroots sport · Made in a shed-ish
Software with both feet on the ground.
Virtually Earthed is a small, growing kit of utilities for grassroots sports clubs — the kind run on goodwill, group chats and a spreadsheet that's seen things. I build the boring bits, so volunteers can get back to the gym, the pitch, the pool.
01 / The idea
Most clubs don't need another platform. They need one small, sharp tool that takes a job off the chair's plate.
Volunteer-shaped
Designed for someone using it once a season, on their phone, in the car park, between sessions.
Quietly priced
Free where I can, near-free where I can't. The point isn't the business — it's the clubs running.
02 / Live now
Podium. Comp kit orders, sorted.
A dead-simple site for collecting competition T-shirt and merch orders from members. Open a window, share a link, watch the orders come in — then export a clean list for the printer. No forwarded spreadsheets. No "did you get my size?" texts on a Sunday night.
- Share one link per comp or event
- Sizes, names, notes — captured cleanly
- Export ready for your kit supplier
- Built so a parent can use it in 30 seconds
