Overview
Allocating games across specific venues, courts and times occurs after a grade’s fixture has been generated. There are several ways to allocate a game:
- Allocating a game direct from Fixture View
- Allocating games using the List View
- Allocating a game using the Calendar View
- Allocating games using Game Slots
To view game allocations, select Competition Management from the main menu on the left-hand side, then select the relevant competition and season tile, and then the Allocations tab.
Game allocation view
The months in which games are fixtured will be displayed. Each month can be expanded to view allocations for that month.
Once a month is expanded, you will see the dates for which games have either been scheduled to (if fixtured but unallocated) and / or allocated to.
Similar to the months, you will be able to see how many games are allocated out of the total amount of games that need to be allocated for that date in the Competition Season you are working in e.g. x / y.
If there is at least 1 clash on a date that involves a game from the Competition Season you are working in, you will see a red triangle indicating that you will need to resolve the clash.
If all games are allocated and there are no clashes involving a game from the Competition Season you are working in, you will see a green tick appear for the date.
