Managing call-ups

The Call-ups module is writable by the president and the manager. Players and parents view the call-ups that concern them. A call-up is always linked to an existing event.

Creating a call-up​

  1. Open Call-ups and click "New call-up".
  2. First choose the Event type, then the Event. If no event exists yet, the form says so and offers "Create an event".
  3. Set the Meeting time and the Ground (required for every call-up).
  4. For a match only, choose Home or Away and the Opponent (searched in the club directory). The opponent is optional, for a tournament. If it can't be found, click "Can't find the opponent? Type its name".
  5. Select the Called-up players (at least one).
  6. Click "Create call-up".

For the ground, CallUp suggests your club's grounds at home (the main ground is pre-selected) and, for an away match, the opponent's grounds: pick the opponent first. The chosen ground is shown on a map. If it can't be found in the directory, click "Can't find the ground? Type the place" and type its name: the map looks it up by itself in the host club's town. Otherwise, search its address in the map field.

The list of proposed players is computed automatically: it contains the members (and children) who answered present to the event, minus those already on another call-up for the same event. You can therefore create several call-ups for one event, for example one per team.

Called-up players (and the parents of called-up children) receive a push notification.

Call-up creation

Call-up list​

The call-up list has a search on the event title, a date filter (All, Upcoming, Past, Today, This week, This month) and an event type filter. By default, only Upcoming call-ups are shown: choose Past to find older ones.

Editing or deleting a call-up​

  • Edit: from the call-up list or via the Edit button at the top of the call-up page (president and manager); time, ground, Home / Away, opponent and player list. The event can no longer be changed once the call-up exists.
  • Delete: from the call-up list; a confirmation is requested.

Viewing a call-up​

The call-up page shows:

  • the event title and type, date and meeting time (or "Time to be confirmed");
  • for a match, a Home or Away badge and the opponent with its logo;
  • the ground with its address, the "Wrong ground?" link and a "Directions" button when the ground has a location;
  • the Player list;
  • for a match, the line-up read-only as soon as at least one player is placed on the field.

The president and the manager also get the "Manage formation" button (see Managing the line-up).

Call-up details

Reporting a wrong ground​

If the ground shown for a call-up is not the right one, click "Wrong ground?" on the call-up page, then pick the right ground or describe it. Only a member of the club that created the call-up can report it. The report is checked by a CallUp administrator, who approves or rejects the correction. Once approved, the call-up is attached to the right ground; the ground record shared with other clubs is not modified.

Adding to a calendar​

The "Add to calendar" button on the call-up page downloads an ICS file to import into an external calendar (Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar…).

note

The ICS file is a snapshot of the call-up at download time: if the location or time changes later, it is not updated. Download it again.
