All referees together Overview

Manage all club referees from one central environment. For each referee, you can clearly record contact details, availability, team preferences and previous matches.

Referee administrators can immediately see who is available and which matches have not yet been assigned. This makes planning easier and keeps it clear who needs to officiate when.

Always on time thanks to automatic Reminders

Once a referee is scheduled, they will automatically receive a notification with the date, time, location, and match information. This means the administrator doesn't need to contact each referee individually.

Additionally, set reminders for the match time. This way, no one will be caught off guard and the chance of a match starting without a referee will be smaller.

Let referees do their own preferences indicate

Every referee can indicate which teams, ages or levels they are a good fit for and which teams they would rather not officiate. Availability can also be communicated in advance.

This information allows managers to create a schedule that better matches experience and personal preferences. This leads to fewer changes and a more pleasant deployment of referees.

Let Planny AI do the planning prepare

Indicate which matches still require a referee and let the Planny AI Assistant automatically generate a proposal. This proposal can take into account availability, team preferences, and the number of matches someone has already officiated.

The referee administrator checks the proposed allocation and adjusts it where necessary. This means that creating a complete schedule takes much less time.

Frequently Asked questions

How do I add referees to 4planning?

Administrators add referees with their personal details, availability, and preferences. Each referee can then access their own account.

Who can manage the referee planning?

You can designate one or more referee administrators. They will be granted the rights to assign matches, make changes, and view outstanding matches.

Can referees submit their own availability?

Yes. Referees can indicate when they are available and which times are not suitable. Administrators can use this information directly when planning.

Can referees indicate which teams they would prefer not to referee?

Yes. Team preferences can be recorded per referee. This allows experience, personal preferences, or potential conflicts of interest to be taken into account during scheduling.

Can Planny AI automatically schedule referees?

Administrators can see how many bar shifts each member has worked and which members have not yet been deployed or have been deployed less often.

Do referees automatically get a notification and reminder?

Yes. Once scheduled, the referee can automatically receive a notification. Reminders can also be sent in advance so that each referee knows in good time where and when they need to officiate.
