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

Season* — Pick the season you're rolling into and press *"Activate {season} for all teams" to get started.

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.

Leagues & divisions — Map each of your teams to its league team name, so fixtures can be matched up correctly.

Import fixtures* — Press *"Find & import your fixtures →" to pull in your league fixtures from FA Full-Time.

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.
