Choosing a Registration Method
There
are 5 different methods to choose from when creating your up your activities
for registration. It is very important that you choose the correct method when
setting up your registrations. Below we will go through each method, and help
you understand when you would select each one.
You
cannot set up an Activity without selecting a Registration Method as shown
below and you cannot change a method once the activity is defined.
Youth Sports
This
method is great for managing, and creating teams for your youth sporting
events. Unlike the Adult Sports method you, as the coordinator, control the
registrations and organize the teams and coaches. This method allows you to
ensure the teams are fair, and evenly matched for any sporting event.
Programs
This
method is a great option for setting up classes or daily events. (yoga, after
school events, art class, day camps etc.) With this method, you have the
options to limit the number of patrons per-class and schedule out multiple days
a week.
Team/Adult Sports
This
method is the opposite of the youth sports method. If you use this option, the
captain of each team coordinates and organizes the teams for registrations. You
will not have to worry about assigning players to teams yourself.
Swimming
This
method is great for setting up multiple swimming lessons and levels. If you
have a swimming pool, we highly recommend using this method instead of the
program’s method for reporting, and better organizational purposes.
Time Slots
This
method is great for creating single or multiple time slot registrations. Unlike
the programs method, the time slots will help you organize rooms and areas of
your center by hour increments. (meeting rooms, racquetball courts, tennis
courts, skating rinks, etc.)
