How to create a session

Start a new session

Open the group that will own the session and choose its create-session action. Your available options depend on your role in that group and your paid-session eligibility.

For the high-level workflow before you create, read how to organise a sports game. If your main problem is scattered chat confirmations, see how to manage sports RSVPs.

Need to set up your organiser payment account? Start with How to set up your organiser payment account, then choose the country-specific guide shown there. Current Singapore guides are available for a Singapore individual or a Singapore company.

Open the group and use the plus button to start creating a session.

Complete the details

1. In Basic Details, enter the title, start date and time, duration and sport.
2. In Players, set the capacity. Check the displayed session privacy, which follows the selected group. Add an optional level.

Enter the sport, title, date, time, duration and venue.

3. In Min Reserved Players, turn on a minimum only if the session should cancel automatically when too few eligible players reserve.
4. In Venue, choose Select venue. If it is not listed, use Add new venue if not in list. For the full address and venue-type walkthrough, see How to set up a new venue.
5. In Cost Sharing, choose:
   • Free
   • See notes
   • Pre-Paid
   • Post-Paid

Choose how costs will be handled for the session.

6. For a paid option, enter the requested court fee, organiser fee and incidentals. Review the estimated fee per player and any payment-account eligibility message.
7. Add clear instructions in Additional Info For Players.

For Reserve First, Pay Later, the reservation deadline must be at least 48 hours before the start. For other session types, the minimum-player deadline must be at least two hours before the start.

Set the required player count and confirmation cut-off when needed.

Review and create

Check every value on the review screen, especially:

• time zone, start and end time;
• group and privacy;
• capacity and minimum;
• venue;
• total cost and currency; and
• cancellation or attendance information in the notes.

Select Create once the summary is correct.

What happens next?

The session appears in the relevant group and under My Sessions. Open it to send an invite, monitor reservations and update the fields that remain editable.

For a complete editing matrix, see Edit or cancel a session. In general, before anyone joins or reserves, the organiser can edit the available session details and—where applicable—the pricing fields. After a player joins a free session or a paid participant reaches the relevant reserved or confirmed state, only the session title, capacity, additional information and permitted minimum-player settings remain editable. Venue, timing, level, sport on Android and pricing fields are locked. Post-paid sessions also cannot reduce capacity or an existing minimum-player requirement after pricing is locked by the first card reservation.
