Game Day Manager NZ

The GDMNZ app

GDMNZ

Memberships, renewals and competition entries all run through Game Day Manager NZ (GDMNZ), an app built for New Zealand fishing clubs. Join or renew in the app, enter comps, submit your catches and follow the results.

Why use the app?

  • Watch the live leaderboards from the start of each comp, right up until the blackout before the finish, when the board goes dark to keep the final placings a surprise for prizegiving.
  • Collect your pins, like the 80cm snapper pin, all in one place.
  • No more writing a number on your mat. The comp's code is stamped on your catch photo automatically.
  • See when your fish is confirmed by the weighmaster, so you know it's on the board.
  • Enter comps in a couple of taps, including registering your boat and crew.
  • Keep up to date with club announcements, straight to your phone.
  • Join or renew your membership without filling in a paper form.
  • Less work for the committee. Entries, payments and catches go straight into the system instead of being typed up by hand, so our volunteers spend less time on paperwork and more time fishing.

Get set up

  1. 1. Install the app

    Download Game Day Manager from the App Store or Google Play using the buttons above.

  2. 2. Sign up

    Open the app and create your account. Use the email address the club has for you, so the app can match you to your membership.

  3. 3. Join or renew

    If we already have your email and your membership is up to date, you should already be a member of Browns Bay Fishing Club in the app, and there's nothing more to do.

    If not, go to Profile → My Memberships, find Browns Bay Fishing Club and tap Join, then complete the form. Haven't renewed your sub yet? You can renew in the app too, or online: join (opens in a new tab) or renew (opens in a new tab).

    Family membership? On the join page, tap Add a family member for each person in your family.

  4. 4. Get confirmed

    We'll confirm your membership in the app, and you're good to go. A committee member does this by hand, so it can take up to 24 hours.

Enter a competition

  1. 1. Find the comp

    In the app, open Compete and pick the competition you want to enter. The dates are on our competitions page.

  2. 2. Register

    Register in the app. You can register just yourself, or if you're fishing on a boat, your skipper can register you with the boat.

  3. 3. Submit your catches

    Photograph your fish on your BBFC measure mat and submit it through the app. It works out at sea with no signal too: the catch saves on your phone and sends itself when you're back in range. The app stamps the comp's code on the photo, so you don't need to write it on your mat.

    Can't use the app? Write your name and the comp's code on the mat so it shows clearly in the photo, and email it to brownsbayfishing@gmail.com. Club rules apply.

Need a hand? Ask at club night (Wednesdays, 4:30-6:00pm, Browns Bay Bowling Club), email brownsbayfishing@gmail.com, or message us on Facebook (opens in a new tab).
