Rolling Over to a New Season with Season Hub

Rolling Over to a New Season

Starting a new season means new age groups, new fixtures and a fresh calendar. Season Hub, in the club sidebar, walks you through it as a simple five-step checklist, ticking off each step as you go.

What you'll learn

• The five steps of the Season Hub checklist
• The bulk tools available for updating age groups and durations
• How fixtures move from import to the calendar
• Where to go next once you've committed your schedule

Quick Steps

1. Season — Pick the season you're rolling into and press "Activate {season} for all teams" to get started.
2. Roll over teams — Use the bulk tools to update your teams for the new season: "New Season: Increment Age Groups" moves every team up one age group, "Set Durations by Age Group" applies the correct FA match lengths, and "Edit Age Groups" lets you bulk-edit manually. Each tool shows a preview before anything is applied.
3. Leagues & divisions — Map each of your teams to its league team name, so fixtures can be matched up correctly.
4. Import fixtures — Press "Find & import your fixtures →" to pull in your league fixtures from FA Full-Time.
5. Schedule & commit — Review your Staged, Timed and Pitched fixtures, then press "Auto-schedule & commit to calendar →" to fill in kick-off times and pitches and add everything to your calendar.

Why the order matters

Each step builds on the last — age groups need to be correct before durations are set, and durations need to be correct before auto-scheduling works out realistic kick-off times. Working through the checklist top to bottom avoids having to redo earlier steps.

What's next

Once fixtures are imported, head to Auto-Schedule to see how kick-off times and pitches get assigned, or Club Calendar to see the finished schedule. For the FA rules behind match durations, see FA Age Rules.
