When your club secretary changes: protecting the booking diary
The best booking process is the one people actually follow on a wet Tuesday night.
Access for a small team beats a personal WhatsApp throne.
Document prices and rules in the system, not in folklore.
Access for a small team beats a personal WhatsApp throne.
Start by publishing real availability for volunteer-run clubs, then add payments once the diary is trusted.
If you still run hire from WhatsApp, a public FacilityPro calendar is the simplest upgrade.
Key takeaways
- Treat the calendar as the only booking truth for volunteer-run clubs.
- 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.
