As part of our ongoing programme of maintaining high levels of service and stability for our clubs, we're pleased to confirm that the bookings system was upgraded over the weekend.  This included transferring the system to a new server, and upgrading the database which sits behind the system.

This is part of our preparations for the next major release of the bookings system which will provide compatibility with iPhones and iPads.  We are in the final stages of testing, and expect to begin the rollout of the new version in the second half of June.

We will also be transferring the Leagues, Tournaments and Rankings system to the new server in the coming weeks.

A number of further enhancements have recently been added to the leagues system, and we wanted to let you know about them.

You will notice the following changes:

• NEW Optional score entry interface instead of the traditional grid format - the new interface includes controls to prevent invalid score entry - contact us if you're interested in switching
• NEW Printable pages for the Ranking Order and Leagues Stats pages
• NEW Filtered views on the Ranking Order and Leagues Stats pages to show "All" or only "Current" members
• NEW Notification emails to both players when a score is entered into the system
• NEW Variations of the Tennis scoring system
• IMPROVED Email delivery - now sent from a custom ClubNet email address (e.g. yourclub-scores@clubnet.org.uk), or tell us if you'd like this changed to a club address (e.g. info@yourclub.com)

We hope you like these improvements and, as always, we welcome your feedback and further suggestions so we can keep improving the system in the future.

Following the visual improvements to the leagues system over the summer, our comprehensive overhaul of the administration functions and the member navigation is now complete.

You will notice the following changes:

• NEW Step by step monthly process with guidance and safeguards at every stage
• NEW Dashboard for administrators so you can go direct to your chosen section
• NEW League History page which will store all future leagues and enable them to be viewed
• NEW Drag & Drop player re-ordering
• NEW Filters on League Reordering page so you can view All players, or only those who are either opted in or opted out
• NEW Restore Points for Leagues, so you can revert to a previous state if you need to
• IMPROVED Navigation for members and administrators, with simpler buttons and logical structure

We hope our existing clubs will like these improvements and, as always, we welcome your feedback and further suggestions so we can keep improving the system in the future.

If you're interested in a demo of the Leagues system, please contact us and we'll be happy to set one up for you.

The design of the pages showing leagues, tournaments, ladders, ranking points etc have all been updated and given a fresh new look.  Users should still find the pages familiar but with a crisper and cleaner new design.

If your leagues are already integrated into a ClubNet / SquashNet website, they'll already be styled to match your club's colours.  If not, then you may want to discuss customising your leagues to match your club's colour scheme - give us a call on 01962 862626 or click here to contact us »

We hope you like the new improved pages.  Why not take a look around your new-look leagues now?

We are also planning some enhancements to the administration interface to help league managers and administrators.  More news on these soon...
