- By HANNAH BURLEY

Classforki­ds,theglasgow­based booking and management system provider, now counts an academy run by Premier League footballer Marc Albrighton among its clients.

The Marc Albrighton Centre of Developmen­t, which runs ten different clubs across Staffordsh­ire, teamed up with the tech firm to speed up its processes for parents reserving and paying for sessions, as well as its own financial management.

Coach Conor Fulford, who founded the academy three years ago with brother-in-law and Leicester City player Albrighton, said: “With the Classforki­ds system now in place, we’ve saved around ten hours per week on admin and life is so much easier for parents wanting to book onto the sessions.

“It’s a great feeling to know we can finally focus on what is important, the children we teach and the future of the club.”

Classforki­ds expanded into the New Zealand and Australian markets earlier this year and plans to launch in the US and Asia in the near future.
