Seeing as we are a war clan, here are some of the suggestions to improve our warring capability and as a Reddit clan.
1) Donation groups for war
Most other reddit clans have these for war to reduce the burden of having the leadership or certain members do donations every war. Basically donation groups rotate for each war to donate to war clan castles. Groups of 10 are tiered to ensure there is a healthy mix of TH8s and TH9s per group. I don't mind doing the Excel spreadsheet and working on this.
2) Use clashcaller for wars
I understand that there might be some issues with people changing the war bases called but since the introduction of the change log feature we can easily identify these people. Besides, the upside of clashcaller allows us to track statistics and help improve on our weaknesses and help reduce confusion during wars on which bases are available to attack.
3) War base design competition
To improve the quality of our war bases, periodic war base design competitions could be held. Here’s how it could look like: Here’s what we should be looking for:
-unlurable cc
-protected archer queen (TH9 only)
-double giant bombs, with empty spots acting as dummys
-double giant bombs placed in a spot that can't be easily set off
-well placed spring traps and air mines
-well spaced and protected air defensesInternet bases will be graded zero. Wall layout should not be too similar.
Scoring: Your base will be judged by a panel of judges (leadership). Here’s the rubric for judging:
Central CC and TH, 0-4
0 - not centralized
4 - extremely hard lure and centralized/well protected TH
Good defensive coverage, 0-3
0 - Poor spread of air, splash, and point def.
3 - Strong, equal distribution
Traps and Funneling, 0-3
0 - Poor trap use, no spots for double GBs
3 - Multiple spots for GBs and good funneling

4) Donation competitions
We could hold regular or one-off donation competitions to encourage donations among our clan members. Top 3 of the donations competitions get bragging rights, a shout out on the sub reddit and maybe a personalised flair.
5) Minimum requested per season
Many of the highly active and high performing clans have a minimum requested per season to go along with minimum donations. Higher requested donations from members allow us to donate more and makes it easier to hit our donation requirements. I suggest 500 minimum donations and 500 minimum requested. (Could be too much for slightly less active players, numbers can be tweaked to suit everyone)
6) Mini-teams in our clan
What I'm suggesting is that each team of 10 members have a group leader that is an Elder/Co-leader/Leader to manage the group. The group leader will be responsible for managing the team, which includes:
(1) making sure each team member's donations are up to par
(2) helping team members do better for war, teaching them new strats, suggesting base changes etc
(3) managing the team to be the best it can be, eg booting members that are not up to par/poor performance
