## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## FSCF Clubs · French Sports Directory

Export **FSCF club emails and phones** from the public Fédération Sportive et Culturelle de France club finder. Pick a department, **Île-de-France**, or nationwide and get one row per club: name, address, GPS, published email, phone and club page.

**No login. No API key. No federation account.**

#### En français

Emails et téléphones des clubs FSCF (annuaire public « trouver un club »). Pas de compte. Choisissez un département, **Île-de-France**, ou **Uniquement les lignes avec email ou téléphone**. Besoin de plusieurs sports : [hub France](https://apify.com/corent1robert/france-sports-clubs-hub). FSGT : [fsgt-clubs-scraper](https://apify.com/corent1robert/fsgt-clubs-scraper).

### Who is this for?

| You are… | Typical goal | Suggested setup |
|----------|--------------|-----------------|
| Sportswear, insurance or equipment brand | Prospect list of FSCF clubs | One department first, then **All departments** |
| Agency / outbound | CRM feed with mailbox and phone | **Only rows with email or phone** |
| Event or tournament organiser | Clubs that can host or relay an activity | Your département + neighbours |
| Local authority / school sport | Territory map of affiliated clubs | One code, then neighbours |
| Data / ops | Scheduled master table of the federation | `departments: ["ALL"]`, `maxItems: 0` |

**What you get by default.** Club name, department, address, GPS and the public club sheet. Email is taken from the club sheet when published. On a nationwide export (~881 unique clubs), **every exported row has an email**. About **45%** have a formatted phone. About **31%** have a website. Contact name and activity labels are **not** on the public finder. This Actor never invents a mailbox.

**When to go nationwide.** Use **All departments** on a paid plan with `maxItems: 0`. Allow a long timeout: the public finder returns at most **10 clubs per search**, so the Actor walks postcodes then opens each club sheet.

### How to use

1. Open the Actor in [Apify Console](https://console.apify.com).
2. Pick one or more **departments**, a **region** (Île-de-France, PACA, AURA), or **All departments**.
3. Leave **Only rows with email or phone** on for a CRM Try. Keep **Max clubs** at 20 for a first run (Free plan is always 20 per run). Set **0** on a paid plan for a full export.
4. Click **Start**. Rows appear in the Dataset as club sheets are opened.

Saved Console tasks (Paris Try, Rhône CRM, Île-de-France, nationwide) ship with the Actor for one-click presets.

### What it extracts

| Category | Fields |
|----------|--------|
| Identity | Club name, short name |
| Location | Department, town, postcode, address, GPS |
| Contact | Email, phone (`XX XX XX XX XX` when the listing is a French number) |
| Web | Club website when published on the sheet |
| Page | Public FSCF club sheet |

### Typical coverage

Nationwide public finder (reference export after walking French postcodes):

| Field | Fill rate |
|-------|-----------|
| Club name, town, postcode, email, club page | ~100% |
| Address | ~94% |
| Phone | ~45% |
| Website | ~31% |
| Contact name / activities | not published on the finder |

The finder **caps each search at 10 clubs**. Unique clubs after a full postcode walk are fewer than the federation’s ~1,200–1,400 affiliated associations: that is the public tool, not a filter in this Actor.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Notes |
|-------|------|---------|--------|
| `departments` | array | `["75"]` | Department codes, **IDF** / **PACA** / **AURA**, or `ALL`. Try starts on Paris. |
| `onlyWithContact` | boolean | `false` (Try on) | Skip clubs with no published email or phone. |
| `maxItems` | integer | `20` | **0** = no row ceiling. **Free plan: 20 / run.** |

#### API-only keys

Not shown on the Console form. Safe defaults are already in code.

| Key | Type | Default | Notes |
|-----|------|---------|--------|
| `delayBetweenRequests` | integer | `40` | Pause between club sheets (ms), 0–5000 |
| `maxConcurrency` | integer | `10` | Parallel club-sheet fetches, 1–16 |

#### Examples

Paris (Try):

```json
{ "departments": ["75"], "onlyWithContact": true, "maxItems": 20 }
```

Nationwide, paid plan, no row ceiling:

```json
{ "departments": ["ALL"], "maxItems": 0 }
```

### Output sample

Download in JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the Dataset tab.

```json
{
  "federation": "FSCF",
  "clubId": "0740026-rumilly-athle-74",
  "structureName": "RUMILLY ATHLÉ 74",
  "shortName": "RA74",
  "departmentNumber": "74",
  "town": "RUMILLY",
  "postalCode": "74150",
  "address": "11 Rue Annexion",
  "latitude": 45.867763,
  "longitude": 5.945206,
  "contactEmail": "athle.rumilly@gmail.com",
  "contactPhone": "06 22 77 38 53",
  "website": "http://rumillyathle74.com",
  "url": "https://fscf.asso.fr/trouver-un-club-fscf/trouver-un-club-fiche-club/0740026-rumilly-athle-74"
}
```

### How it works

1. Resolves the selected departments to postcodes used by the public club finder.
2. Searches each postcode (the site returns at most 10 clubs per query) and deduplicates clubs.
3. Opens each public club sheet for the published mailbox and website.
4. Formats French phones as `XX XX XX XX XX` and writes each row as soon as it is complete.

### How much does it cost to scrape FSCF clubs?

HTTP-only — no browser. You pay **pay-per-event** on the Store: **$0.00749 per exported club** plus a negligible run start. Same list prices as the other France federation club Actors on this Store.

| Scenario | Approx. cost |
|----------|----------------|
| 20 clubs (Try / Free plan) | ~$0.15 |
| 1,000 clubs | ~$7.49 |
| Full unique finder export (~881 clubs) | ~$6.60 |

Tiers (per club row, list prices): FREE $0.00749 · Bronze $0.00749 · Silver $0.00749 · Gold $0.00749. Actor start is $0.00005 per GB of memory (minimum one event). Platform usage is paid by the user. Nationwide runs take longer because of the 10-club search cap — compute stays cheap (HTTP only).

### Is scraping FSCF free?

Apify Free plan users get **20 clubs per run**. Paid plans follow PPE and your max charge. Compute is cheap because this Actor does not launch a browser.

### Is it legal to scrape FSCF?

This Actor only accesses data that FSCF makes publicly available in its club finder on fscf.asso.fr. As with any data containing personal information, ensure your use complies with GDPR and relevant regulations.

### Local development

```bash
cd fscf-clubs-scraper
npm install
apify run --input-file=./.actor/INPUT.json
```

`storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json` must satisfy the input schema, or pass `--input-file`. On local `apify run`, platform/CLI input overwrites overlapping keys from a root `input.json`.

### Support

Contact <corentin@outreacher.fr> if you need a custom scraper or tailored automation.

### Also available

Also available as a pack: [France Sports Clubs hub](https://apify.com/corent1robert/france-sports-clubs-hub) — merge several federations into one dataset.

Same job (French department → published club contacts). One Actor per federation.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
