Smoothcomp’s whole calendar inside Gymdesk, filtered to your sport and how far you’ll travel. Entry options, price tiers and deadlines on the event page.

Endorse the event

Endorse it with a note and your members see it in their own view, marked Academy Approved. Invite whoever should be going and see who says yes.

No retyping a name, a birth date or a belt rank you already have on file. Most of the form is filled before you open it.

4

Coach the day

The Coach Companion App puts the day’s matches in run order and names a coach on each one. Get notified when two land at the same time, or when one has nobody in the corner.

5

Bring it back home

The medal and the result, already sitting on their profile Monday morning. Not because anyone typed it in. Because it already happened.

Why we built this

Managing a Competition Team Was Never Meant to Be Done Through a Group Chat and a Notebook

Finding the right tournament. Chasing down your team to register. Tracking who signed up, who showed and how it went—all of it’s done everywhere except where you run the gym that team trains in.

Every athlete has a coach in their corner on competition day

Bring assistant coaches, parents and team managers in by QR scan and give every athlete a coach. The Matches screen shows any match still without one.

bring it home

Every result comes home to your gym's record

Events, podiums and each member's matches, with the score or submission, land on the record, including the years before you connected. Notes your coaches write at the mat land there too.

"Our members are always asking, 'When is the next competition?' … There's no central place for competition information. Now, it lives within Gymdesk, which they already use. When a coach can send a student a direct invite to register, it's so much easier. It also gives them a confidence boost that makes them want to keep training."

Competition Management Is Included in Every Gymdesk Plan

One per-member price. Most gym software would sell this as an add-on. We don't.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Is competition management included in my plan?

Yes. It's included in every Gymdesk plan at the same per-member price you already pay, with no add-on or tier.

Which tournaments show up in Gymdesk?

Every event running on Smoothcomp. Events that require a federation membership finish registration on Smoothcomp for now, and events on other platforms, including your own in-house showcases, won't appear and their results won't land on the member record.

Do I need a Smoothcomp account?

Yes. Whoever owns your academy on Smoothcomp connects it once, in seconds. Members link their own free account to register themselves through Gymdesk, but not to browse events or mark Interested.

Is Coach Companion really free?

Yes, for any coach with a free Smoothcomp account, on iPhone and Android. Notes are the one part that needs your academy connected to Gymdesk, because that's where they land.

How current is the information?

Events, registrations and results sync from Smoothcomp on a regular schedule, not instantly. Payment status refreshes when you open the page.

My gym doesn't compete. Does anything change for me?

No. The Competitions tab is on by default for martial arts gyms, and you can turn it off in Settings. Everything else about Gymdesk works exactly as it does today.
