Bangladesh Athletics Academy

How we'll build it

Five phases. Each one ends with something BAF can use.

  1. 0

    Pitch demo

    You are here

    BAF sees the whole system and says yes.

    • Every screen in this demo
    • Sample data only
    • Built on the real technology

    Done when: BAF has seen it and answered the open questions.

  2. 1

    Open admissions

    Run the academy without spreadsheets.

    • Bangla and English website that ranks in search
    • Apply online and book a free trial
    • Logins for parents, coaches and the office
    • Place athletes in lanes, with a waitlist
    • Attendance with a check-in text to parents
    • Fees recorded with receipts

    Done when: A family applies, gets a seat, attends and gets a check-in text.

  3. 2

    Peace of mind

    Parents see every morning; coaches stop using paper.

    • Pick-up texts and an approved pick-up list
    • Coach notes and monthly report cards
    • 6 AM weather and air-quality check
    • Fitness tests with the trackside stopwatch
    • Online payments with bKash, Nagad and cards
    • Coach app works offline

    Done when: Check-in, pick-up and report cards reach parents with no office effort.

  4. 3

    Athlete world

    Athletes want to come back.

    • Athlete cards, medals and streaks
    • Race your past self
    • River teams and the River Cup
    • Junior and Senior looks, academy records
    • Teen logins linked to a parent

    Done when: Athletes open their card every week.

  5. 4

    Grow and sustain

    More families, more funding, more talent for BAF.

    • Bangla guides for parents
    • Sponsor a seat with online payment
    • Shareable medals, with parent approval
    • Certificates with a QR check
    • Path to BAF squads, with consent
    • Events: River Cup day, family run, Victory Day run

    Done when: Sponsored seats are funded and families find us through search.

Decisions we need from BAF

  1. The monthly fee and scholarships
  2. Which days sessions run
  3. How 14-year-olds are placed
  4. The coaches and substitutes
  5. Girls' groups or a female coach on request
  6. The photo policy
  7. BAF's logo and brand rules
  8. Domain, hosting, SMS and payment accounts
  9. Who runs the office and approves admissions
  10. Bangla-first or English-first
  11. Who sets safe limits for air, heat and rain
