The clubs are groups of players with their own identity and their own objectives. The Clubs offer players additional tools such as monitoring the performance of players within the club. Each club has a manager who can recruit other players in the club.

Players can be a member of one club at a time. The manager of the club may invite any player in the club. Each invitation is valid for 7 days. You can see the invitations you received in the Sub-menu Clubs  in the menu GAME. Each invitation shows the Club in question, the date of issuance and the expiration date. You can accept till the expiration date or reject the invitation. In case you reject and after the invitation expires, you cannot become a member; unless the club manager sends a new invitation.  If you accept, you become a member of the club and your name will appear in the membership lists of the club. The club logo will also appear on your Boat window. Once a member, you can leave at any time using the button Exit in Sub-menu Clubs .

When a club member enters a Race, the Boat is attached to the club. This link between the Boat and the club can not be changed for that Race even if the player leaves the club after the start, or during the race. The boat is now part of the club. If you would quit a Club and join another Club, then your Boat will sail with the original Club for the actual Race, but she will follow you in your New Club in the next Race your register for.
A Club member, who joins a Club for the first time, will be ranked with his 1st Club, direct in the actual Race already.
So check that you are in the right club before you register in a race.

The performance of the Boats of Club-members can be followed in the rankings dedicated to the club, accessible from this Club sub menu. These rankings are accessible by following the sub-menu Rankings on the page of the club and selecting the desired Race or Challenge.

You can send an invitation to any player, except to players who are already  members in another Club. Please note however that the number of members in a club is limited. You can have up to 30 people in your club, including the manager(updated 27Feb2013). Invitations are also limited, so that the sum of the invitations and number of club members can not exceed 30. So use your invitations carefully. Please note, however, a player in a club can not accept your invitation unless he has left his current club.

As a manager, you can send off a player out of your Club. Use the button  Manage Users on the page of your Club and use the option Kick on the player in question.

Allowing you to edit the details , you can change the description of your club and its flag. The flag is now 32 pixels wide and 24 tall format PNG . You must send it from your computer using the form available by clicking on the icon of the flag on the edit page. Note that PNG supports transparency, do not hesitate to take advantage if you want a flag square, triangular or round. The flag will be shown in the Boat window of each club member.

You can assign your manager status to another Club member. This can be useful if you think you are not active on the site for a while or if you stop playing. You can use the button for that Manage users can Set as Manager on the player concerned. Keep in mind that the club management options will be available only for a player that is a Member of LiveSkipper. Once your manager status is changed, that player becomes the new manager, and you can not get that status unless he assigns you in return.
