New Tournament (Programs and Clinics) Features
Court Blocking
When you create a tournament, courts are automatically booked in your calendar—no manual action needed.
- This feature is only available with the new calendar version.
- If you're using the old version, you’ll have the option to switch during the tournament setup, at the court blocking step.
Custom Pricing
You can set custom prices based on category or membership when creating a tournament.
- The system calculates the correct price automatically at registration, whether it's an individual or doubles entry—each player is handled separately.
Mobile Tournament Management
All tournament features are now available on mobile.
- You can create, edit, and manage tournaments and players directly from your mobile devices.
Add a Player to a Tournament and Mark It as Paid
- When adding players to a tournament, you can now register their payments directly. Payment can be marked as complete using onsite payment methods or the club wallet (provided the player has sufficient balance).
Tournament Cancellation Rules
Club managers are able to remove or add players on a tournament even after the registration deadline has passed, until it reaches the end date for the tournament. Once a player is removed, a refund will be processed and delivered within 5-10 working days to the same payment method.
