Making a booking
The booking process involves 4 steps to make a booking and a 5th to make payment. The process bar at the top of the screen indicates the stage you are on.
Step 1 – select site
Choose the 'Site' at which you want to make a booking. If your organisation runs more than one site you will have the choice of a number of sites in the list. If the list is extensive, and you have a search box, use this to type in the site name or just the first few characters of the site name. Now you can click 'Search' to reduce the list.
Step 2 - select activity type
Choose the 'Activity type' that includes the one you wish to book. The activities
you are able to book online have been organised into groups of similar activities
to make the selection process easier. There may be explanatory comments beside the activity types.
Step 3 – select activity
Select the 'Activity' you wish to book from the list displayed. If the required activity
is not displayed, click 'Back' in your browser or select the previous step (select
activity type) from the process bar. There may be explanatory comments beside each activity.
Step 4 – select a slot
Choosing an activity
When you have chosen an activity, this next section is made up of two or more pages. This
screen displays the available slots and your existing bookings.
- On the first page, select the day and approximate time for the booking.
- The second page displays the areas that can be booked and their individual availability
on the chosen day.
Click on the desired time.
- The 'Complete your booking' page displays the details of your booking and the price.
If a membership has been used as payment, this is shown. You may enter any comments you wish the site to be aware of that relate to this booking.

button.
- To confirm your booking click ‘Book’.
- If your activity requires payment at this time, you will be taken to a page giving
you the option to pay for your booking. There may be a time limit requiring you
to pay before your booking is cancelled.
- Click the 'paid' or 'pay' links in the text to go to the 'Payment page'.
If the activity is free, or your site does not require immediate payment, this page
will complete your booking.
Choosing a class
If you have chosen a class booking, this page displays the dates and times of the classes.
- Click 'Book' to go to the 'Complete your booking' page.
Step 5 – payment (only available at sites
that offer payments)

is safe and secure. Complete the secure payment page. All fields that are asterisked
must be completed. Click the appropriate button to process the payment. You will
be provided with a confirmation of your booking for your records.
Manage bookings
The 'My bookings' page displays a list of your confirmed and unconfirmed bookings
in two tables.
- Clicking on the 'green arrow' next to the booking allows you to move the booking. This will display the first page of Step 4 to rebook the
activity on a different day or time.

Within the current memberships table:
- Clicking on the 'More info' icon will display another page showing membership and payment details.
- Clicking on the 'Renew your membership' icon will take you to the payment page to renew the membership with a start date one day after the current end date. Having selected the 'Renew' button you will be taken to a page to confirm payment for your subscription.
A 'Purchase a new membership' button will take you to the 'Membership registration' page to select a new/different subscription.
Purchase a new membership
If your organisation offers online memberships, you can purchase new memberships online which are either paid monthly or by a single payment.
- Select the start date for your membership and the site where the membership is available. Available memberships are displayed with their basic price. If there is a pro rata price to be calculated, the membership will be asterisked.
