01 . The Challenge

NK Apače is a local football club with a loyal fanbase but no real online presence. They needed a website that their volunteers could actually manage themselves — no developers required.

The club runs on passion, not budgets. So whatever we built had to be dead simple to update. Match results, player rosters, news posts, event announcements — the club's board members needed to handle all of it from their phones if necessary. At the same time, the site had to look professional enough to attract sponsors and represent the club properly at the regional level.

02 . Our Approach

We built the site with Next.js and Sanity CMS — fast for fans, easy to manage for the club. The board can log into Sanity, post match results with photos, update the squad list, and publish news in minutes. The editing interface is clean and intuitive — no technical knowledge needed.

We designed the site around what fans actually care about: upcoming matches, latest results, the team roster, and a photo gallery. The homepage always shows the next fixture and last result front and center. We also built a simple sponsor section so the club can showcase their partners — which directly helps them secure funding.

The site launched before the spring season and has since become the go-to source for everything NK Apače. The club reported a noticeable increase in match-day attendance after fans started sharing posts from the site on social media.
