What club treasurers need from a booking system: lessons from busy weeks

Ask any busy secretary supporting pitch owners: the diary is never just a diary — it is customer service, cashflow, and conflict resolution.

Treasurers need audit trails more than clever features.

Reconciling cash and transfers after the fact creates avoidable stress.

Payout schedules should be predictable for club cashflow planning.

None of this requires a complicated transformation project. It requires one source of truth in Northern Ireland.

With FacilityPro, hirers book live availability online and can pay at booking — no sales call required.

Key takeaways

• Treat the calendar as the only booking truth for pitch owners.
• Publish prices, buffers, and cancellation rules where hirers can see them.
• Take payment in the booking flow when you open public hire.
• Give more than one officer access so holidays do not freeze the diary.
