Starting a running club has never been easier. Follow this step-by-step guide to launch your club and start growing your community on Kibi.

How to Create a Running Club on Kibi in 5 Minutes

Whether you lead weekly training sessions at the park or organize trail runs on weekends, having a proper club page on Kibi gives your community structure, visibility, and powerful management tools.

Step 1: Download and Sign Up

If you haven't already, download Kibi from the App Store or Google Play. Create your personal account — it takes less than a minute.

Step 2: Create Your Club

Tap on the "+" button and select "Create Club". Fill in:

  • Club name — keep it memorable and searchable
  • Description — tell runners what you're about (training style, pace, vibe)
  • Location — set your primary city so local runners can find you
  • Cover photo — upload a picture that represents your community

Step 3: Configure Your Settings

Fine-tune your club with these options:

  • Public or Private — public clubs are discoverable; private clubs require an invitation
  • Member approval — choose automatic or manual approval for new members
  • Turn on payments — if you want to offer paid events, activate them for your club now

Step 4: Create Your First Activity

Go to your club page and tap "Create Activity". Choose from:

  • Training session — for regular group runs
  • Event — for special occasions, social runs, or themed events
  • Race — for competitive events with timing and results

Set the date, time, location, capacity, and any custom registration fields you need. Hit publish, and your members will receive a push notification automatically.

Step 5: Invite Your Community

Share your club's Kibi link on social media, WhatsApp groups, or in person. Every runner who joins will see your upcoming activities and can sign up in one tap.

What Happens Next

As your club grows, you'll unlock insights in your dashboard:

  • Most active members
  • Most popular activities
  • Attendance trends
  • Revenue reports (for paid events)

You can also co-organize events with other clubs to cross-promote and grow faster.
