Blocking out courts for general club purposes

Club officials have the ability to block out courts in order to prevent them being used by members, team captains or event organisers. The most typical need is for court repair or cleaning purposes.

To do so go to Manage courts and select the Reservations tab. In "View only mode" you can navigate to any date in the future and review the current court usage.

To actually book out courts you need to select a category under which the bookings are to be made from the the drop-down menu. If there are no relevant choices press the New button to create a new category. Then the Change button to set an appropriate name. When you set the name you can also indicate whether you'll need the lights turned on (if you have court lighting control).

You may then navigate to any date and set your bookings. For full instructions please see this block booking article.

If you attempt to reserve a court that has already been booked for some other purpose you will be given a warning. However, you can still go ahead and reserve the court. As a club official you are empowered to do this. If the court was booked for a match then the match participants will be notified that their match has been cancelled.
