Public Directory Listing
The public club directory is a searchable listing of racket sports clubs that helps players find clubs in their area. When you list your club, it becomes visible on directory.mixitone.com, where players can search for clubs by location, sport type, and other criteria.
Benefits of listing your club
- Increased visibility: Make it easier for new players to find your club
- Free promotion: No cost to list your club in the directory
- Automatic updates: Your listing updates automatically when you change your club information
- Session information: Your public game sessions are also shown in your listing

Your club will be removed from the directory immediately.
Public game sessions
If you have recurring game sessions that are marked as public (with the "List in public directory" option enabled), they will automatically appear in your club's directory listing. This helps players see when your club has sessions they can join.
To make a session public:
- Edit the recurring session
- Check the "List in public directory" option
- Add a description (optional but recommended)
- Save the session
Country restrictions
Currently, only clubs located in New Zealand can be listed in the public directory. If your club is in another country, the "List in public directory" option will be disabled.
We're working on expanding directory support to other countries. Check back for updates!
