Choose the right event setup
For admins setting up programs: pick the right event type for camps, clinics, lessons, rentals and classes before you build.
Most event problems start at setup: a camp built as a class, a lesson package with no per-session option, a semi-private lesson that only takes one athlete. Use this guide before you build, because some choices are hard to change once people register (see Fix an event after it's live).
Which event type to use
| Program | Event type | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Week-long camp | Fixed schedule | One registration covers all days |
| Camp with days off in the middle | Fixed schedule | Utilize blackout dates when building the event |
| Clinic series (pay for all or per session) | Fixed event with single session purchase | Allows clients to buy the entire package or one by one |
| Private lesson | Open booking | Clients pick a time and instructor |
| Semi-private lesson (2–3 athletes) | Open booking | Set max size to 2-3 |
| Cage or lane rental | Open booking | Assign only resources not staff |
| Team practice or league | Team | Roster-based |
| Drop-in class | Class | Recurring schedule, book one at a time |
| Free event with several time slots | Open booking |
What you can change after people register
You can usually change descriptions, images and capacity (upward), price. Changing dates, days or booking type affects people already registered. See Fix an event after it's live before you do.
