SALLIE

Facility Reservations

Manage reservations and scheduling for your school's gyms and fields, including outside groups and maintenance.

Every program in a school wants the gym at the same hour. Practices, games, an outside group on Tuesday nights and a floor refinish in March all compete for it, and the calendar that settles the question is often a paper grid or a spreadsheet that two people edit at once.

SALLIE shows every gym and field on one page, with what is on each today and this week. Tap a place and you see its events, its bookings, the teams whose usual schedule has them there, and the free gaps of 30 minutes or more. To book, give the day, the start and end, what it is for (practice, game, event, outside use or maintenance) and the team. SALLIE shows a card of what it would book, and nothing is held until you say yes.

A booking that overlaps another booking, or an event at that place, is refused with a line naming what already has it. Nothing overrides a clash. A repeating booking, such as every weekday from 3:15 to 6 until the end of February, is one card: days that clash are skipped, never overridden, and the card says how many. The athletic director and the office can book anything, and a coach can book only a practice for a team they lead. The morning briefing tells the office how many bookings are on today.

SALLIE's gym booking panel: the gym's schedule for today and the coming week with usual class periods, free time and events, beside a form to book it by day, time, purpose and group.

Questions

Does SALLIE take payment or send a confirmation for an outside rental?

No. SALLIE holds places and nothing else. A booking for an outside group records the organization's name; it takes no payment and sends no confirmation.

What if a team usually practices there at that time?

The card warns you that the team is usually there, and still lets you book. A team's regular schedule is shown as Usual. It is not a booking, so it blocks no one, and booking over it does not move the team or tell anyone.

Can a booking be canceled?

Yes. Cancel removes one day at once and logs who did it. On a repeating booking, Cancel the rest removes that day and every later day still booked. A canceled booking stays in the history.
