Home answers one question: does anything need me today?
If the answer is no, it says so and you can put your phone away.
- Coming up. The next three things in your week: a match, a court, a lesson, a game or your side's fixture. Tap one to go to it.
- Waiting on you. Only things that need you, and that you can do something about.
- Your matches. Every match you still have to play, the agreed ones first. One with no day fixed has a Suggest times button.
- Clubhouse. The other tab: the whole club’s fortnight, and how far the season has got. See Clubhouse.
What gets on to it
Nobody can get on until somebody acts, like no live season.
A deadline is coming: the season ends on Sunday with four matches unplayed.
Something waits for you: an application, a bounced Direct Debit, a disputed score.
Anything merely interesting stays off. A badge nobody can clear teaches people to ignore the screen. Every item has somewhere to go and a definite end: tap it, do the thing, and it leaves.
If you help run the club
Your Home has two halves, The club and Your game. They are two tabs on a phone, each with a count, and one above the other on a computer.
The club's work is grouped into Money, Members and Competitions, three jobs each, most urgent first, and a button under them shows the rest. A group with nothing blocked folds to one line that still names every job.
You only see what your own job covers: the treasurer gets the bounced payment, the secretary the application. A job your plan cannot do is shown last, marked Not on your plan, and is in no count.
A new club also gets a list of what is left to set up. What is left, never what is done, so it shrinks to nothing and goes away.
The morning email
Your jobs that have somebody waiting on them also come by email, once a morning, in the order your Home shows them. It only comes when something new has arrived. Told about three applications on Monday, you hear nothing on Tuesday about the same three. A fourth and it comes again.
To choose what it brings, open your own page and find What we email you. Under Jobs for the club are three switches, Money, Membership and Competitions, so you can keep the kind you deal with and stop the rest. An application waiting on its payment is under Money.
An owner can switch these off for somebody too, from their card under People. Your page then says who did it, and you can switch it back on. A switch you have set yourself is your choice, and the owner cannot change it.
