Check in a booked group

Start actual playing time without losing the original reservation end.

Open Booking calendar ↗

The workspace link may ask you to log in. Read this guide alongside your own account.

  1. 1

    Open the confirmed reservation

    In Booking calendar, tap the booked interval and confirm the contact, ground and start/end times.

  2. 2

    Count who is actually starting

    Enter Players checking in now. This can differ from the estimated group size. Add later arrivals through the live session as they join.

  3. 3

    Start play

    Choose Check in & start timer when the group begins during its reserved interval. Confirm the session shows In play and the expected starting count.

  4. 4

    Keep the reserved end in view

    A late check-in does not move the scheduled end. If the group wants longer, use the extension controls and confirm there is room before the next booking or closing time.

PUT IT INTO PRACTICE

Try it at your ground

Before check-in, say the reserved end aloud to the group and record only the players starting now.

You’re ready to move on when…

Actual elapsed time and the full reserved interval are shown as separate values.

Questions about this step

Does a late arrival get a later finish automatically?

No. Actual play starts at check-in, but the reserved end stays unchanged. Use an allowed extension if the next booking, holds and closing time leave room.

Can I pause the playing timer?

There is no pause control. The app bills from actual recorded playing start/end times. Backgrounding, closing or reloading the browser does not pause or reset the session.
