Attendance and planned absences

One entry point to record who was at each event and to note in advance who will be missing.

New organisation in version 2.2.0
  • Web app available now.
  • iPhone and Android version 2.2.0 is available on the App Store and Google Play. Update the app to use the new features.

Where it is and who can use it

Open More → Attendance. Inside there are two sections: Event register (Registro eventi) and Planned absences (Assenze programmate).

Event register: recording attendance

The register covers practices, matches and other calendar events.

  1. Open More → Attendance → Event register.
  2. Pick the event from the date-ordered list (today and upcoming first, then past ones).
  3. For each player choose Present, Late or Absent. Add a note if needed.
  4. Check the summary at the top: anyone not marked yet stays To be recorded. If the screen shows a save command, use it before leaving.
If almost everyone was there, use All present and then fix only the exceptions.

From a practice's detail

On iPhone and Android, the event detail has an Attendance row, collapsed at first, with the summary.

  1. Tap the row to open the event register and mark attendance.
  2. Tap again to collapse it. Collapsing the panel doesn't discard your choices.

On iPhone each choice is saved right away. On Android collapsing the panel isn't the same as saving: check the summary doesn't still show players to be recorded that you already marked. On the web app, the event detail links to the register page.

Present, Late, Absent, To be recorded

StateMeaning
PresentAttendance recorded by someone with permission.
LatePresent but late. Counts as attendance but stays highlighted separately.
AbsentAbsence recorded for that event.
To be recorded (Da rilevare)Nothing has been recorded yet. It's neither attendance nor absence.
A match's default roster ("Whole roster") and the session's "expected available" players in practice planning are for organising: they don't write attendance. Likewise, an athlete who doesn't reply or isn't called up doesn't become absent.

Planned absences

Here you note in advance who will be missing, for example because of an injury or a trip.

  1. Open More → Attendance → Planned absences.
  2. Add the absence: athlete, start and end date and an optional reason.
  3. Save. On the relevant day coach and staff get a reminder on the Dashboard.

Absences are for whole days and include both the first and the last day. They are used:

A planned absence doesn't turn into an absence in the event register on its own: record it there too if needed.

The season report

  1. Open More → Attendance and tap the report icon.
  2. For each player you see the attendance rate, attendances out of tracked events, late arrivals and absences.

The coloured bar is green above 80%, amber between 50% and 80%, red below 50%. The report counts events with at least one recorded attendance. On the web app you'll also find the full players × events grid.

What athletes see

Athletes don't manage the register and don't see planned absences. Where the app shows attendance to an athlete, for example on the match page, they see only their own row. Absence reasons don't appear in summaries shared with the team.
