After creating a venue, you can create and manage Court Types to organize your courts, fields, or playing areas in a clear and structured way. Each Court Type can include one or more actual courts and is used throughout the system for pricing, booking schedules, online reservations, booking orders, and reporting.
Using Court Types helps make daily operations easier to manage, especially for venues with multiple sports, different playing areas, different court quality levels, or different business models.
Organize courts clearly
Group courts by sport, area, quality level, or usage purpose so venue owners can manage operations more easily and customers can choose the right option when booking.
Manage individual courts
Within each Court Type, you can create multiple actual courts such as Court 01, Court 02, and Court 03 to manage booking schedules, usage status, and operational data separately.
Connect pricing and booking
Court Types serve as foundational data for pricing tables, booking schedule display, online reservations, booking order processing, and statistical reports.
1. Create Court Types
You can create multiple Court Types depending on your business model and operational structure. Each Court Type represents a group of courts, fields, or playing areas that share similar characteristics, sports, pricing rules, or usage policies.
The most common way to create Court Types is to classify courts by sport or by the size of the playing area your venue provides.
- Pickleball courts: For courts dedicated to Pickleball.
- Badminton courts: For indoor badminton courts or badminton playing areas.
- Tennis courts: For standard tennis courts or tennis service areas.
- 5-a-side football fields: For mini football fields designed for 5-player teams.
- 7-a-side football fields: For larger football fields designed for 7-player teams.
In addition to sports, you can also classify Court Types by location, space, quality level, or separate operating policies.
- Indoor courts: Suitable for covered areas, sports halls, or indoor sports facilities.
- Outdoor courts: Suitable for outdoor playing areas that may be affected by weather conditions.
- VIP courts: For higher-quality courts with better amenities or separate pricing.
- Standard courts: For regular courts serving general booking needs.
2. Manage courts inside each Court Type
Within each Court Type, you can create multiple individual courts, fields, or playing areas for booking and operational management. Each individual court represents an actual playing area currently used at the venue.
Create Court Types based on actual operations
First, define the court groups you need to manage, such as Pickleball, Badminton, Tennis, VIP courts, Indoor courts, or Outdoor courts.
Create individual courts inside the Court Type
Each individual court is an independent booking unit that can be displayed on the booking schedule and processed separately in booking orders.
- Court Type: Pickleball
- Court 01
- Court 02
- Court 03
- Court 04
Track booking schedules and status for each court
Each individual court has its own booking history, usage status, and management data, while still belonging to the same Court Type for easier coordination.
3. Connect Court Types with pricing and booking
Court Types are not only used for grouping courts. They are also important data connected to multiple operational features on Sportnet.
Each Court Type can have its own pricing table and pricing rules based on court quality, time slots, and usage demand.
- Set pricing tables by Court Type.
- Apply different prices for VIP courts, standard courts, indoor courts, or outdoor courts.
- Set prices by time slot, weekday, weekend, or holiday.
- Support accurate price calculation when customers book online.
When customers or staff create a booking order, Court Types help the system filter the correct group of courts, display the right available schedules, and apply the correct operating rules.
- Display booking schedules by Court Type.
- Help customers choose the correct court group when booking online.
- Support staff in coordinating courts faster when processing orders.
- Support revenue and utilization reports by Court Type.
4. The role of Court Types in operations
Court Types are used across multiple system features, helping operational data stay consistent, organized, and easy to track.
- Pricing table setup.
- Booking schedule management.
- Online booking.
- Booking order management.
- Revenue reports and utilization statistics.
When data is clearly classified, venue owners can evaluate the performance of each Court Type and adjust business policies more effectively.
- Identify which Court Types are booked most often.
- Track revenue by each court group.
- Evaluate utilization performance for each Court Type.
- Create promotions or adjust pricing for specific court groups more easily.
5. Suggestions when setting up Court Types
If your venue has multiple groups of courts that differ in quality, location, or pricing, you should separate them into different Court Types. For example, instead of creating only “Pickleball Courts”, you can create “Indoor Pickleball”, “Outdoor Pickleball”, or “VIP Pickleball” if these groups have different operating rules and prices.
Court Type names should reflect how players choose your services. A clear name helps customers book faster, while also helping staff coordinate courts more easily and reduce confusion in daily operations.
