Event Templates

Events

Event templates save you time by letting you reuse common event configurations. Perfect for recurring practices, regular meetings, or events with similar settings.

What Are Templates?

Templates are pre-configured event settings that you can use as a starting point. Instead of entering the same information every time, you can create a template once and reuse it.

Creating a Template

  1. Go to your team's settings or templates page
  2. Click "Create Template"
  3. Fill in the template details:
    • Template name (e.g., "Weekly Practice")
    • Default time window (e.g., 7 PM - 9 PM)
    • Default timezone
    • Default description
    • Any other recurring settings
  4. Save the template

Using a Template

When creating a new event:

  1. Click "Create Event"
  2. Select "Use Template" or choose a template from the dropdown
  3. The form will be pre-filled with the template's settings
  4. Adjust the date range and any other details as needed
  5. Create the event as normal

Template Examples

Here are some common template ideas:

  • Weekly Practice: Every week, same time window, same description
  • Tournament Match: Specific time window, tournament-specific description
  • Casual Game Night: Flexible time window, casual description
  • Team Meeting: Shorter time window, meeting-focused settings

Managing Templates

You can edit, duplicate, or delete templates at any time. Changes to templates don't affect existing events - they only apply to new events created from that template.

Note: Template features are available on Premium plans. Free plan users can still create events manually.
