About PitchSide

PitchSide is the dedicated marketplace connecting sports clubs, academies, and clinics with qualified, verified physiotherapists and sports therapists. Whether you run a grassroots football club or a professional rugby academy, finding reliable, credentialled medical cover for your fixtures has never been easier.

For organisations, PitchSide removes the guesswork from sourcing pitchside cover. Post a fixture, review verified therapist profiles, accept an application with a single click, and let our automated payment system handle everything from holding charges through to final settlement — all in one place.

For therapists, PitchSide opens a steady stream of local work that fits around your existing commitments. Browse fixtures that match your qualifications and location, apply with ease, and get paid securely via Stripe — with full visibility of your earnings and payout history at all times.

Our platform enforces document verification for every practitioner, including insurance, DBS checks, first-aid certification, and professional registrations (CSP, HCPC, SRT). That means organisations can trust the professionals they book, and therapists can showcase their credentials with confidence.

PitchSide is built and maintained by a small team passionate about grassroots sport and healthcare standards. We're constantly improving the platform based on feedback from clubs and practitioners across the UK.
