Strava announces Club Events feature

Strava club event organisers can now organise group activities on the move, with the feature now available on the Strava mobile app.

The Strava club events feature allows users to create group rides, whether that be a one-off spontaneous race or a weekly club session, and invite club members to join. Organisers choose the event type, frequency, terrain and provide a description of the event, before inviting all or selected members of their club.

6 reasons to use Strava 

Strava events mobile

As most GPS units with Strava connectivity now sync via Bluetooth, Strava are capitalising on the consumer’s demand for greater ease of use – and the prospect of heading out for a ride, saving the route and turning it into an event before you’ve got home is hot in demand, according to Strava’s Product Manager Will Lee: “From talking to club admins, we learned that they were looking for an easier way to plan group activities with members, especially on mobile. Club events on mobile allow athletes in a club to quickly organise a real-world activity.”

The clubs feature has not long been available on mobile, and the addition of the events functionality is a step closer to bringing Strava users the full experience via their hand-held device.

The club events feature is available now on both iOS and Android – visit www.strava.com for more info.
