Services · Website development · Sports websites

Sports websites for organisations that run sport in several Saudi cities.

Codeeo provides sports website development Saudi Arabia organisations can grow city by city: national and regional bodies, clubs in private or investment ownership, academy chains, venue networks and event promoters. We build one Arabic first platform with a page for every branch, competition and programme, editorial roles for head office and local teams, and enquiry routes that reach the right city. The site is planned for national search, Saudi data rules and the heavy traffic that big sporting moments now bring.

This page covers the website and web platform, not ticket sales or online payment. Planning can start in person in Riyadh, where part of our team is based, and runs by video call for colleagues in other cities.

What the platform can include

One website structure that works from head office to every branch.

Saudi sport has changed shape. The Ministry of Sport, which replaced the General Sports Authority, now oversees a sector where leading clubs have moved into investment ownership, the Saudi Sports for All Federation promotes community activity, and federations prepare for major international events, including the FIFA World Cup in 2034. The Quality of Life Program under Vision 2030 has also brought new academies, padel and fitness chains and event formats into many cities.

Organisations working across several regions face the same website problem: each branch wants its own voice, while head office needs one brand, one set of rules and reliable data. These are the parts we build to solve it, chosen and ordered for your structure. Not every organisation needs all of them; a venue chain may skip the competition hub, while a federation may not need a programme directory at all.

Explain your project
  • Multi city site architecture

    A clear URL and navigation plan with city hubs for Riyadh, Jeddah, the Eastern Province and wherever you operate, each listing its branches, programmes and events. New cities are added from templates, so expansion does not mean a redesign, and every city follows the same layout rules.

    Growth into a new city takes days, not a rebuild.

  • Head office and branch editing roles

    Head office controls the brand, homepage, policies and national news. Branch managers edit their own timetables, coaches and local news, and an approval step can sit between them and publication if your governance requires it.

    Local teams publish without breaking the brand.

  • Competition and results hub

    Fixtures, results, tables and brackets for national and regional competitions, entered by officials or imported from your competition management system. Each match and event gets its own page with structured data, so results appear accurately in search across the Kingdom.

    One trusted record for every competition.

  • National programme directory

    A searchable directory of programmes, clubs or venues filtered by sport, city, age and gender, with each listing maintained by the branch that runs it. Families relocating between cities find the nearest option quickly.

    Visitors move from search to the right branch.

  • Member and partner portal

    A signed in area for member clubs, officials, coaches or partners, where they download circulars, submit forms and update their details. Where identity must be confirmed for officials or registered athletes, sign in can be connected to Nafath through an approved integration provider.

    Administration moves off email chains.

  • Sponsor and commercial pages

    Partner tiers, national and city level placements, and a commercial enquiry route for brands that sponsor sport. Placements are scheduled in the CMS, so a new season or a new partner changes the whole site without manual edits on every page.

    Sponsors get the visibility they paid for.

  • Arabic first content system

    Right to left layouts designed first, English versions linked to each Arabic page, and editorial guidance so writers in different cities use the same terms. Hreflang, translated metadata and shared glossaries keep both languages consistent at scale.

    The brand reads the same in every city.

  • Traffic ready hosting

    Caching, a CDN and autoscaling hosting sized for the moments when a national result or a draw announcement sends large numbers of visitors at once. Hosting can sit in a Saudi cloud region, with security settings aligned to the NCA's Essential Cybersecurity Controls where they apply to you.

    The site stays up when interest peaks.

  • Enquiry routing by city

    Forms, WhatsApp and call links that know which city and branch a visitor is looking at, then send the enquiry to that team and log it in your CRM. Head office sees enquiries by city, sport and source in one report.

    No enquiry is lost between head office and branches.

  • Consent and analytics

    A consent banner, privacy notices and data retention rules designed for the Personal Data Protection Law, which SDAIA supervises, with analytics events for every enquiry type. Reports are split by city, so regional managers see the results of their own pages.

    Decisions rest on data you are allowed to hold.

Who this is for

Four national situations we build sports websites for.

A national sports website has to satisfy head office, regional managers, partners and the public at once. We start with your organisational chart and your rollout plan, because they decide the site structure, the editing rights and the order in which cities go live. These four situations account for most national sports projects we take on in the Kingdom. In every one of them, the hardest part is rarely the design; it is agreeing who owns which content, who approves it and how a new branch or competition is added without a developer.

01

Federations and national bodies

Bodies that set rules and run competitions across the country need a site that serves member clubs, officials, athletes and media. That means a competition hub, a document library with versions, a portal for members and clear announcement pages. We structure the site around those audiences and give the communications team approval steps that match their governance, with redirects so years of old links keep working. Circulars and regulations gain dates, versions and categories, so a club secretary in any region finds the current rule rather than an outdated PDF.

We plan around your governance and approval chain.

02

Clubs in investment ownership

Clubs that moved to new ownership often serve fans, sponsors, investors and international media on one site. We separate those audiences in the navigation, add a corporate section for announcements, and give the commercial team its own enquiry routing. Tickets and memberships link to licensed partners, keeping payment responsibilities clear. Investor and governance pages can be added for owners who publish annual updates, and the commercial area can show partners their reach across fans in different cities.

03

Academy and venue chains

Football, swimming, padel and fitness brands opening branches across several regions need a site that adds a city in days. We build city hubs, branch templates and a programme directory, with branch managers editing their own pages and head office keeping the brand consistent. Each branch gets its own local search plan, with a Google Business Profile and a page that carries its district, opening hours and facilities, so families searching nearby find it before a national page.

New branches go live from a template.

04

Event promoters with a national calendar

Promoters of races, tournaments and festivals in different cities need an events platform rather than a new microsite each time. One CMS holds every event, with its own pages for entries, schedules, volunteers and media, and a results archive that builds authority in search year after year. Sponsors for each event can be scheduled in the CMS, and entrants from abroad get English pages without a separate site.

Six phases from a national brief to a platform every city uses.

  1. 01National discoveryWorkshops with head office in Riyadh or by video call, then short calls with regional teams to capture how each city actually works.
  2. 02Structure and governanceCity hubs, templates, URL rules, editor roles, approval steps and a rollout order, agreed in writing before design starts.
  3. 03Design systemArabic first components for programmes, venues, competitions and news, documented so future pages follow the same rules.
  4. 04Platform buildCMS, directory, competition hub, portal, routing, CRM and analytics built in short cycles and shown to stakeholders as they work.
  5. 05Pilot cityOne city or region goes live first, editors are trained, and lessons from real enquiries shape templates before wider rollout.
  6. 06Rollout and redirectsRemaining cities launch in the agreed order, old sites and links redirect, and reporting by city is reviewed with head office.

Technology

What we build this with.

We often use a headless CMS with a Next.js front end, hosted in a Saudi cloud region, behind a CDN. Integrations commonly include CRM platforms such as Dynamics 365 or HubSpot, competition management systems, identity through Nafath for portals, and analytics with consent configured from launch.

Questions national sports organisations ask us.

The structure, editing rights and rollout matter as much as the design.

One branch can run a simple site. An organisation across several regions needs city hubs, branch templates, roles that let local teams publish safely and a rollout plan that does not overload anyone. It also needs national search planning, so a search in Dammam shows the Dammam branch and not a head office page. We design these rules first, then the pages, which is why national sites built this way keep working as you grow. It also means a regional manager can open a new branch page on the day it opens its doors.
