Who this template is for
Small Group Sign-Up is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.
- Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in faith & congregations.
- Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 14 questions across 1 screen.
- Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 10 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
- It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
- It allows multiple selections without free text.
- Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Do you need childcare?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Ages of the children”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Transport” is I would need a lift, the form dynamically exposes “Where you would be travelling from”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional validation: if “Do you need a step-free venue?” is Yes, “Anything you would like the leader to know” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form
How is this different from a ministry volunteer sign-up?
Volunteering offers to serve. This joins a group that meets to study, pray or spend time together, so it asks about availability, childcare and transport.
Should it be one screen?
Yes. A longer form loses exactly the people who are new and least certain, which are the ones small groups are for.
Is it denomination-specific?
No. The group names are editable options, so the same form works for study groups, prayer groups or general fellowship.
What if there is no suitable group?
The form asks whether they would help start one, which is how most new groups actually begin.
Is the Small Group Sign-Up template free to use?
Yes. You can preview and test Small Group Sign-Up on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.
What does the Small Group Sign-Up template ask for?
It asks 14 questions across 1 page, 10 of which are required. Every question is listed in full further down this page, and each one can be renamed, reordered, made optional or deleted after you copy the template.
Can I edit the Small Group Sign-Up form after copying it?
Yes — the copy is entirely yours. Change wording, add or remove questions, switch between the card and classic layouts, restyle it to match your brand, and set who gets notified on each submission.
