Coaches and spaces double-book
A coach is free and a cage is free, but not at the same time as someone else's rental. Checking both by hand is where mistakes happen.
CoachCore
Sports facility scheduling software
Sports facility scheduling software built around conflicts, hours, and windows
Sports facility scheduling software decides what time is actually open: it checks coach availability, space availability, rentals, closures, and booking windows before a customer can reserve. CoachCore turns that into one online reservation flow with payment attached, so a facility calendar does not end in a double-booked cage.
The scheduling problem
Availability is the hardest part of running a facility.
Hours and closures change constantly
Holiday hours, maintenance, a team rental, a tournament weekend. If the public calendar does not know, customers book time you cannot give them.
Members and the public get the same window
Regulars expect to book further ahead than walk-ins, and standing weekly time is a reason to hold a membership. A flat calendar cannot do that.
What it should include
What sports facility scheduling software should include.
Coach and space conflict checks
A lesson tied to a space is checked against that space's rentals and blocks, and against the coach's availability and existing sessions.
Operating hours and special hours
Set regular facility hours and per-space weekly availability, then add date-specific hours for holidays and events.
Closures and maintenance blocks
Block one space or the whole facility. Public-facing closures hide time from customers, while hard closures apply to everyone.
Member and non-member booking windows
Set how many days ahead each group can book. Defaults are 7 days for the public and 30 days for members, and you can change both.
Recurring weekly reservations
Eligible members can hold the same space weekly. Occurrences are created on a rolling basis with a cap on how many future bookings are held at once.
Online reservations with payment
Customers reserve and pay in one flow, within the rental length rules you set: minimum, maximum, and time increment.
Inside the facility dashboard
One schedule for cages, lessons, and clinics.

What is CoachCore?
CoachCore is sports coaching and facility management software for independent coaches, sports academies, and training facilities. Its scheduling covers coach availability, bookable spaces, rentals, and member rules, with payment taken at booking.
Who is CoachCore for?
- Facilities where coaches and renters share the same spaces
- Owners who offer member-only booking windows or recurring time
- Operators who close spaces for maintenance, events, or holidays
- Front desk staff who reschedule and check in customers daily
What can CoachCore manage?
Scheduling rules
- Facility hours, per-space availability, and special hours
- Space closures and maintenance blocks
- Member and non-member booking windows
- Recurring weekly reservations with future-booking caps
- Rental length minimums, maximums, and increments
Reservations and follow-through
- Coach lessons assigned to spaces
- Online reservations with payment
- Calendar rescheduling by staff
- Customer accounts and upcoming reservations
How is CoachCore different from basic scheduling software?
A generic scheduler knows a person is free. CoachCore knows the coach is free, the space is open, the facility is not closed, the customer's booking window allows it, and the payment is attached.
When would a facility use CoachCore?
- Coaches and renters keep colliding on the same space
- Your public calendar shows time you have already given away
- You want members to book further ahead than the public
- You are replacing a calendar link, a payment app, and a spreadsheet
Scheduling that gets paid
Scheduling should happen where the customer pays.
A calendar that is separate from payment creates unpaid holds. CoachCore ties reservations to payment, with a configurable grace period for recurring bookings.
Staff can reschedule from the facility calendar, check customers in, and handle walk-ins from the same system customers book in.

FAQ
Sports facility scheduling software questions
How does sports facility scheduling software prevent booking conflicts?
It checks each request against everything that could occupy the time: other rentals, coach lessons assigned to the space, closures, and the hours you set for the space and the facility. Time that is taken is not shown as open.
Can members and non-members have different booking windows?
Yes. You set separate windows for each group. Defaults are 7 days for the public and 30 days for members, and both can be changed.
Can facilities allow recurring reservations?
Yes. Eligible members can reserve the same space weekly. Bookings are created on a rolling basis, with a cap on how many future bookings are held at once.
Can facilities block spaces for maintenance or closures?
Yes. Block a single space or the whole facility for a date and time range, and set special hours for specific dates. Public closures hide the time from customers; hard closures apply to everyone.
Can CoachCore replace a calendar link, a payment app, and a spreadsheet?
For a facility, yes. Reservations, payment, memberships, and customer records live in one system instead of a calendar link, a payment app, and a spreadsheet kept in sync by hand.
What happens when a recurring booking is not paid?
Recurring bookings that are not covered by included sessions are created as pending with a payment deadline. The grace period is configurable, and unpaid bookings are cancelled when it expires.
Give customers only the time you can actually give them.
Set your hours, closures, and booking windows once, and let the calendar enforce them.
Facility plan: $150/mo for up to 5 coaches, then $10/mo for each additional coach.
