Facility Details

When creating a facility, provide:

• Name - A clear, descriptive name (e.g., "Westside Tennis Center")
• Address - Physical location for directions and mapping
• Description - Overview shown to customers on the booking portal
• Contact info - Phone number and email for the facility
• Timezone - Ensures booking times are displayed correctly

Adding Courts & Spaces

Each facility contains one or more bookable spaces. These might be called courts, fields, rooms, lanes, or rinks depending on your sport.

For each space, specify:

• Name - How the space is identified (e.g., "Court 1", "Field A")
• Type - The kind of space (tennis court, soccer field, pool lane, etc.)
• Capacity - Maximum number of people/players
• Surface - Material or surface type (hardcourt, grass, turf, etc.)
• Indoor/Outdoor - Whether the space is covered

Spaces inherit availability from the parent facility but can have their own specific rules and pricing.

Amenities & Features

Tag facilities and spaces with amenities to help customers find what they need:

• Lighting (for night play)
• Climate control (A/C, heating)
• Locker rooms
• Showers
• Pro shop
• Equipment rental
• Parking
• Wheelchair accessibility

Customers can filter available spaces by amenities when booking.

Photos & Media

Add photos to help customers identify and choose spaces:

• Upload multiple photos per facility or space
