Based in Turin, Italy, SportClubby operates as a comprehensive social and booking platform for the sports and wellness sector. Founded in 2016 by Biagio Bartoli and Stefano De Amici, the company was established to create a unified ecosystem for athletes, sports facilities, and fitness professionals. The founders leveraged their two decades of experience in the global digitalization of professional sports to launch the platform. Bartoli, the CEO, has a background as a product manager for sports tech leaders like Deltatre and Wyscout, where he managed products for clients such as UEFA and FIFA. This experience, combined with a personal passion for sports, fueled the creation of SportClubby.
The company's primary offering is a mobile application that serves as both a consumer-facing booking tool and a management software for sports clubs. For individual users, the app simplifies the process of discovering and booking a wide range of sports and wellness activities, from gym classes and tennis courts to yoga and sailing lessons. It allows users to connect with others who have similar interests and skill levels, invite friends to events, and share their activities on social media. For business clients, such as sports centers, gyms, and trainers, SportClubby provides a subscription-based management system. This software includes a customizable calendar for managing facilities and activities, booking management, payment processing, and promotional tools designed to increase client retention and attract new customers.
The company began operations in January 2018 and quickly gained traction. A significant milestone was its incubation at I3P in 2020. Over its lifetime, the company has raised approximately $4.73 million (€4.5 million) through several funding rounds from investors including Oltre Impact, Wylab, Finpiemonte, and LigurCapital. Before its acquisition, the platform had amassed over 1.5 million users and partnered with over 1,000 clubs across Italy. In a strategic move to consolidate the Italian market for racket sports, SportClubby was acquired by the Spanish company Playtomic on January 15, 2024. Following the acquisition, the SportClubby brand will continue to serve the fitness, swimming, and multisport sectors, while padel and tennis operations are integrated under Playtomic.
