Books each team's practice inside the open hours.

How to use it

  1. Open Practice from the menu and pick a night tab (Mon to Fri).
  2. Tap Place teams. Choose a Team, a Field and a Start, then tap Book. Only free starts inside open hours are listed, and the sheet shows when the practice ends.
  3. On a computer, click an empty spot inside open hours to place a team there, or drag a placed team to another start or field. On a phone, tap an open row in the List view, or use Place teams.
  4. To move or remove a team, tap it. Change Field or Start and tap Save, or remove it.
  5. Check Problems for coach clashes, weekly counts and practice-time limits, and Not placed for teams still without a practice.

What to expect

Each placement shows a message with Undo. Teams are drawn at their division's practice length. A half-field booking shows which half.

  • On a phone, the Grid scrolls sideways when you have more fields than fit. Headers use short names like Field 1A. Tap a header to see the full field name.
  • Each practice on the phone grid shows the team and the coach's last name.
  • A practice that breaks a coach's schedule shows Clash. One that breaks a family's practice-time limit shows Limits. A practice can show both. Nothing is blocked.

Common issues

  • "No free start": the field has no gap long enough for that team's practice on this night. Try another field or night.
  • Practice-time limits come from what families gave at registration. Nothing is blocked, so a time can stay if there's a reason for it.
  • "No practice hours on" a night: open a field that night in Settings first.
  • "That time isn’t open on (field)." You pressed outside that field's open hours. Add them in Settings → Practice hours, then try again.
  • "That spot is already booked on (field)." Another team has that time. Pick an empty spot or move the other team first.
