Rae Koss website

The problem

Rae Koss is a basketball club in Rae municipality, founded in 2004. It has a representative team, a reserve team and youth training groups in the municipality’s schools. The club needed a website that brings its teams, games, youth training and community events together for fans of all ages.

One thing was clear from the start: the club could not write news every day and did not want old news on its site.

The solution

We built the sitemap and wireframes around how the club really works. Instead of a news section that would go stale, the site sends fans to the club’s Facebook and Instagram, where it posts almost every day.

Upcoming games for the first and second league teams appear on the homepage automatically, with date, time and venue, through an API connection to the Estonian Basketball Federation’s information system. Nobody at the club has to update the schedule by hand.

Team pages introduce every player and coach, including why they play for Rae Koss. The youth section lists training groups and coaches across Rae’s schools. The club’s history opens with the latest events and runs back to 2004. Sponsors have their place at the bottom of every page, with the name sponsors shown larger.

The design follows the club’s kit and logo: bold, but friendly. The homepage line “Kes on boss? Rae Koss!” (Who’s the boss? Rae Koss!) sets the tone. We also set up search engine optimisation and gave the club simple guides to update ticket and volunteer links itself.

The results

Rae Koss expected a simple club website and got more: a site that keeps the game schedule up to date on its own. The club was so happy with the result that it invited the häk team to its home games.

What did the client say?

“It was great to see how well häk understood our wishes and turned them into a fresh, clean website that really captures what Rae Koss is all about. What stood out most was how available and supportive they were throughout the whole process.”
