- Club allocations that clash with rentals to the public.
- Pitches with the floodlights on and nobody playing.
- Rentals taken in cash and hard to balance.

## What Sporttia does

### Booking by time band

Bands configured per pitch and season, with different rates with and without floodlights.

### Club allocations

Recurring bookings for club training, kept separate from one-off rentals.

### Online payment

Paid up front, with a cancellation policy per facility.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can a club's recurring training sessions be booked?

Yes, through recurring bookings that hold the band for the whole season, without interfering with one-off rentals.

### Can floodlighting be charged separately from the pitch rental?

Yes. Prices depend on the time band, so an hour under lights can carry its own rate, and the lights are scheduled with the booking: on when it starts, off when it ends, with whatever margins the center sets.

### Can an 11-a-side pitch be split into two 7-a-side pitches?

Yes, with shared ground: the two 7-a-side pitches and the 11-a-side one block each other, so booking one closes the other's availability automatically.

### How is usage split between clubs and public rentals?

The grid shows club allocation, one-off rentals and maintenance on the same screen, and the reports say how many hours went to each use when the season closes.
