What is resource planning?

Who is using what, when and where

Resource planning is allocating your club’s shared facilities and equipment efficiently – so everyone knows who is using what, when and where.

No more spreadsheets, wall charts or long email threads. Whether you’re coordinating many teams, managing limited training facilities or keeping track of equipment, the online resource planner keeps it organised and visible to everyone in the club.

Online resource planner

Real-time availability, no double bookings

SportMember replaces messy Excel sheets with a resource allocation calendar everyone can access. Administrators set up resources, assign them to teams or coaches, and can let specific users make their own bookings.

If a coach cancels an activity, the system releases that slot automatically so others can book it. Everyone sees availability instantly.

  • Online booking of pitches, halls and gear
  • Automatic updates when activities change
  • Booking rights for chosen coaches

Print it for the clubhouse wall

If you still want a printed version or need to share the overview offline, export your resource calendar to Excel at any time.

It gives you a simple snapshot for the clubhouse wall or internal use – always taken from the most up-to-date version.

FAQ

FAQ: resource and team management tools

What is planning resource management?
Planning resource management means organising and allocating a club’s facilities, spaces and equipment efficiently. With SportMember it’s all digital – no spreadsheets or manual updates – making it easy to see who is using what and when.
How does SportMember’s resource management system work?
Administrators create and assign resources such as pitches, halls or rooms to specific teams and time slots. The system links to the club calendar and releases resources when an activity is cancelled, so schedules stay accurate in real time.
What are team management resources?
Team management resources include all the tools that help coaches organise training, games and facilities. SportMember combines scheduling, communication and resource allocation in one connected platform.
Why use a digital resource planner instead of Excel?
Excel plans need constant manual updates and emailing. SportMember’s cloud-based tool updates for everyone automatically and makes collaboration easy – saving time and preventing double bookings.
Can members or coaches see available resources?
Yes. Only administrators can create resources, but all members can view the allocation plan. Coaches can also be given booking rights, so they can reserve facilities or equipment themselves within predefined rules.
