Greens

The Greens section is used to manage the greens and rinks available at your club. If there are missing greens for your club, these need to be added by a system administrator. Please contact a BowlsLink system admin to assist with fixing this. 
The greens management section is linked to other components in the system. Greens available for member use and the greens used in competitions are taken from the information provided in this module. 

The main screen shows the current greens assigned to your club. With multiple greens, you can use the standard search and filter functions to look for a particular green within your club.

To edit the options for a green in your club, click on the action button and select edit green from the menu.

The details for your green will be bought up. The managing club will default to your club, this cannot be changed in this screen, and requires a system administrator to change the management. The green short name is used to identify your green when you have more than one. The short name can be a number (for example: Green 1, Green 2, Green 3) or a letter (Green A, Green B, Green C). Optionally you can add a full name to better identify your greens. The timezone will default to your current club zone, but this can be adjusted if required.

The Green features allow you to setup the features of the green, surface type, if it has lights etc.

The general availability times for the green can be configured in the next section. Complete days can be removed by unchecking the tick next to the day. For days of availability, the hours can be adjusted by changing the time in the boxes

Final screen is used to setup the individual rinks for the green. A green must have at least one rink included. The ditch rinks can be setup by ticking the boxes next to the rink. Click save and close to close the screen and save the information.
