Sports facility booking software

Add each independently bookable court, sports hall or pitch as a separate space. Set its details, opening hours and booking mode, then coordinate regular club training and one-off reservations in the shared schedule. Invited users can book under your category settings, while public requests arrive through a shared link or website form and require approval. For a tennis-only venue, see our tennis court booking system.

Yes. You can publish availability and a booking flow for selected spaces without requiring visitors to create an account. Internal users can continue booking through their own accounts, and both flows stay in one calendar.

Yes. Create recurring reservations for a regular club session on a particular court, pitch or hall. Review the planned dates and edit one booking or the series when the programme changes. This reserves facility time; it does not generate league fixtures, register a team or confirm an instructor’s availability.

Confirm the shared-footprint setup before making those options bookable. A whole hall and badminton courts marked inside it overlap physically, even if they have different names in a calendar. This page does not promise automatic dependencies between whole-hall and part-hall bookings. Use one safe resource model agreed with your team rather than exposing overlapping layouts as independent spaces.

Yes. Choose operating hours and a booking mode for each space, such as fixed-duration court sessions or flexible start and end times for a pitch. Reserve the full time the activity needs, including setup and clearing equipment. Check local operating restrictions and any seasonal changes when setting the schedule; the calendar does not determine whether conditions are safe for play.

Yes. Use private categories for invited users and configure whether those bookings need approval. Public categories accept requests from visitors and always require approval before confirmation. Booking access is separate from membership subscriptions, payment status and physical entry to the building.

Use Whatspot for facility availability and reservations. Keep membership billing, activity enrolment, equipment servicing, staffing and building maintenance in the systems that handle them. If your buying decision depends on online payments, automated gates or lighting, linked facilities or participant capacity booking, confirm that requirement separately before choosing the system.

Google or Outlook Calendar can work for straightforward scheduling. When several groups share spaces and visitors need to request time, a calendar alone may leave your team coordinating access, booking rules and approvals manually. Whatspot provides a booking flow for invited users and public requests, with space availability and control over confirmation. You can keep using connected Google and Outlook calendars alongside it.
