Build a usable matchday schedule without creating avoidable clashes
Set up your pitches, timings, and fixture flow so the schedule works in practice rather than only on paper.
What you will do
A workable schedule depends on realistic pitch capacity, match timings, and changeover gaps.
Before you start
- Add the right pitch sizes before you rely on autoscheduling.
- Use realistic match duration and turnaround settings.
- Treat unscheduled fixtures and issue warnings as matchday blockers.
Where to go
Pitch settings
Check pitch names, sizes, and availability before fixtures are placed.
Scheduling board
Use this to place games, review conflicts, and leave overflow fixtures unscheduled if needed.
How to do it
- 1Confirm the matchday start and finish times are realistic.
- 2Check that every required pitch size exists and is available for long enough.
- 3Run autoscheduler only after timings and pitches are correct.
- 4Resolve issues and leave overflow fixtures unscheduled rather than forcing overlaps.
Check you are ready
- No fixtures are overlapping.
- Every pitch size has enough time available.
- The issues panel is clear or only shows accepted warnings.
If something looks wrong
If something looks wrong
If the board says there is not enough capacity, treat that as a setup problem to fix, not something to ignore.
