VSPN

An app of its own for the VSPN! The professional association for sport and performance psychology is using the app in its own corporate style, with a home screen designed by the board itself and a search function that enables members to find fellow professionals. This helps members stay up to date and find one another more quickly.

Association for Sports Psychology in the Netherlands

The Dutch Association for Sport Psychology (VSPN) was founded in 1990 and is the professional association for sport and performance psychology. The association brings together psychologists, athletes, coaches, sports federations, the academic community and the education sector, with a clear aim: greater enjoyment, improved performance and a healthy sporting culture. Through accreditation, training and the VSPN® registers for sports psychologists, sports psychology lecturers and sports psychology researchers, the VSPN safeguards the quality of the profession.

In the app, the board customises the home screen itself; everything is presented in the VSPN’s orange corporate identity, and members can find colleagues using the search function. More and more professional associations are choosing Youmie, and the VSPN demonstrates why: professional associations find the app extremely easy to use! For professional associations that want to connect their members but currently rely on a website, newsletter and separate membership lists, Youmie creates an association app that brings together a searchable members’ directory, news and the events calendar.

Featured features

The VSPN app includes many of the features made possible by Youmie technology. Here are a few examples!

Members’ Directory

In the members’ directory, VSPN members can find all their colleagues, clearly organised into members and groups. Searching by name is quick, so the right sports psychologist, researcher or lecturer can always be found in just a few clicks. This makes it easy for members to get in touch with one another.

News and events

The home screen brings together the latest news and the next upcoming event. Members can read recent messages from the committee and register for the featured meeting with a single tap. This ensures that no one misses out on what’s happening within the club, not even those who only open the app now and then.

Events Calendar

The calendar lists all VSPN events by month. Members can see straight away whether there are still places available and who else is attending, and can access their own registrations with a single tap. This allows them to keep track of everything they have signed up for.
