The public What's on page shows the club's classes to anyone, with no sign-in: what is on, when, who runs it, what it costs and who can come. A visitor can ask for a place. Members are sent to sign in and book in Sports Club OS. The foyer screen shows today's classes on a TV.

The office opens both from the links above the office timetable: **The public page** and **Foyer screen**. Members find **The public page** beside their own Classes tabs.

## What the public page shows

- The kinds of class, as photographs, with how many sessions each has this week. Pressing one shows only those.
- An introductory offer where a class has one, for example **New to pickleball? Your first session is free.**, with **See the sessions**.
- The timetable a day at a time, with **All day**, **Morning**, **Afternoon** and **Evening**, and the week's days. Each row has the time, the class, the coach, the place, who runs it, how many places are left, and its button.
- Each class has a page of its own, opened from its row, with **About**, the level, what to bring, where, the coach, **Booking and cancelling**, the coming dates and **Share this class**. The link opens that class's page, with no sign-in, so it can be sent to anyone.

Only classes set to be seen by **Everyone, and the public page** appear. Classes for members only, or hidden ones, do not. The page names nobody but the coaches, and says how many places are left, never who is booked.

Prices are shown as the club lists them. Where a business runs a class, its name is on it.

## The buttons on the public page

| Button | When |
|---|---|
| **Ask for a place** | A class open to members and visitors |
| **Sign in to book** | A class open to members only |
| **Sign in to enrol** | A term group, course or camp |
| **Sign in to join the waitlist** | A full class with a waitlist |

**Members: sign in**, at the top, opens Sports Club OS.

## A visitor asks for a place

1. The visitor presses **Ask for a place** on the session.
2. The sheet says what to expect, for example **We email you a link to confirm, and hold a place for you in the meantime. Pay $25 at the club when you come. Pay by card: coming later.** For a first session that is free, it says so.
3. They type **Your name**, **Email** and **Mobile**, and press **Ask for a place**.

![On a phone, the sheet "Ask for a place: Squash squad: Beginners", Saturday 17 October, 9am, saying "We email you a link to confirm, and hold a place for you in the meantime. Pay $25 at the club when you come. Pay by card: coming later.", with Your name, Email and Mobile filled in, and Not now and Ask for a place.](https://sportsclubos.net/help/img/classes-ask-780.webp)
*A visitor gives a name, an email address and a mobile number, then confirms from the email. Shown in release 2026.10.29 · whats-on.html · as a visitor.*

4. The sheet says **Check your email**, for example **We have sent an email to sam.rowe@example.com. Press the link in it by 11am and the place is yours.** The place is held in the meantime.
5. The link in the email opens the public page with **Confirm your place** and **Confirm my place**. Once pressed, it says **You are on the list**.

If the link is not pressed in time, the place is released and the visitor is told. Pressed too late, the page says **That place has gone**. The visitor pays at the club when they come, and the coach sees **not paid** on the roll until they do.

> **Your club decides:** how long a visitor has to confirm (60 minutes unless changed), on the **Classes** tab of Settings.

A visitor is not added to the member list. Their name, email address and mobile are kept for classes only.

## The club's website

If your club's website is kept in Sports Club OS, its What's on page and each sport's page show the same classes in the website's own look, and a visitor can ask for a place there in the same way.

## The foyer screen

The foyer screen shows today's classes in large type, for a TV in the foyer:

- **On now**: each session under way, with the place and the coach.
- The next sessions today, each with its time, length, place and coach, and **4 places left**, **Full**, **Term group** or the reason it is cancelled. When few are left today, it adds **Tomorrow**.
- Every twenty seconds it turns to one class as a poster, then back.
- At the foot, how to book: in Sports Club OS or at the office.

It names no member, and it keeps itself up to date, so a session cancelled on a phone shows as cancelled on the TV.

To put it on one of the club's TVs, choose **Classes today** as what the screen shows on Club > TVs and Displays > Displays. See [Set up a TV and choose what it shows](https://sportsclubos.net/help/displays/set-up-a-tv/index.md).

> **Not built yet:** card payment. Visitors pay at the club.
