# Build a Game Schedule

> Add games, assign courts, and set game times for your event.

## Where to find it

**Admin → Events → \[Your event] → Schedule**

***

## Generate a schedule automatically

The schedule toolbar includes three generator modes. Choose the one that fits your format.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Weekly League">
    Best for season-long leagues. Generates a full round-robin across multiple weeks.

    ### Settings

    | Setting              | Description                                                                                       |
    | -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
    | **Days of week**     | Which days games are played (e.g. Tuesday + Thursday)                                             |
    | **Start / End date** | The date range for the season                                                                     |
    | **Time slots**       | One or more game start times per night (e.g. 7:00 pm, 8:15 pm)                                    |
    | **Courts**           | Number of simultaneous courts per time slot                                                       |
    | **Game duration**    | Used for estimating finish times (informational only)                                             |
    | **Repeat schedule**  | When on, the round-robin repeats after all teams have played each other — useful for long seasons |

    A live preview shows the total number of games that will be created before you confirm.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Pickup / Drop-in">
    Creates recurring blank time slots with no teams assigned. Use this when you want to publish a schedule of open-play sessions that players can drop into.

    Uses the same settings as Weekly League (days of week, start/end date, time slots, courts) — but slots are created empty with no team assignment.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Single Day">
    For one-off tournaments or single-session events.

    Set a date, start time, number of courts, and game/break durations. The generator fills in back-to-back games for the day automatically.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

After generating your schedule, individual games can still be edited, moved, or deleted manually.
