Pitches, hall and gym
Set up your club's facilities once, then book them by squad, close one for the day and answer coaches' requests.
Every pitch, hall and gym in one planner. It comes with the Facilities add-on and Club Complete.
Set them up
Go to Me, then your club, then Facilities. The first time, Add the usual set adds a main pitch, a back pitch, a training field, a 3G pitch, a hall and a gym. Change or remove any your club doesn't have.
For each one you can say:
- whether it has floodlights
- whether it can be split into two halves
- how many fit at once (hall and gym)
- for a gym, an age under which players need an adult with them
Book it
Open the Week planner, pick a day and tap Book on a facility. Pick the time, the half if it splits, the squad and whether it's every week.
Coaches can also pick a pitch while they set up training. The list shows what's free then, what's taken and what's closed. Players and parents see which pitch on the session.
On a pitch without lights, you're warned if a booking ends after dark. Sunset comes from your club's ground on the club details screen.
When it's taken
A coach can only book a free slot for their own squad. If it's taken, they can ask the grounds officer for it. The grounds officer sees the request, moves the other booking if they can, and gives it to them or says no.
Close one for the day
Tap ⋯ on a facility, then Close for the day, and pick the reason. Anyone with a booking then hears straight away and can move.
Who runs it
Club admins, and anyone the club makes Grounds officer in Members. Coaches book; they don't set facilities up.
