This is your calendar with all your sports events. You can show events to your friends, teams and fans. You can also explicitly invite people to events and track their attendance status. Nice to know if you have full team for the game or whether you have to call in someone from the bench.

Answers

How do I create an event?
Simple, on your home page there is a Calendar. Click the "Create a New Event" link in that box. This will bring up a form in which you can enter the details of the event and whether or not you want to show it to others. Click "Submit" when you are done and your event is created and will show on your calendar. Much the same way, you can also create a team event. Go to the team calendar and create the event there, it will show on all the team members' calendar.
An event must have a begin date, you can make it start on a specific time or make it an "All Day" event.

How do I create a recurring event?
Want to set up that weekly practice? Create a new event and choose "Every Week" for "Repeats". This will then allow you to pick which days of the week and until when the event should recur.

How to move an event to another day and/or time?
Go to your calendar and click on the event that you want to change. Click the Edit link at the bottom and change the date and time, click save and your event date and/or time has changed.

How do I delete an event?
Go to your home page and scroll down to the calendar. If you event is coming up shortly it will be in the left part of your calendar. You can delete it by clicking the "x" behind the event. If you don't see it there, navigate to the event and click on it. The popup will have the option to delete the event.

How do I invite people to an event?
Once you have created an event you can invite people for it. Inviting means that they will get an invitation and they can accept or decline the invitation. First create the event, then click the + in front of "Invite Friends". This will bring up a list of all your friends. You can select them by clicking on them which will move them to the right into the selected list. If you want to un-invite them, click on the person on the right in the selected list and they will be moved back to the left. You can also invite your Friends Network (or all your Team Member when you are creating a Team Event). First of all that is just easier then clicking on all the individuals, secondly, when someone gets added to an invited network, that person will automatically be invited to the event.

How can I tell whether someone has accepted my invitation?
As the organizer you will be notified when someone accepts or declined an event. You can always click on an event in zAthlete and find the replies under the "Responses" header.

Can I set someone else's attendance status?
If you are the organizer of an event, you can set the attendance status from everyone. If you are "just" an invitee you can only set your own attendance status.

I have too many events on my calendar, can I hide some?
Yes you can. Click the link "Filter Event" under the Calendar. The screen that appears allows you to filter out by event type and/or by team.

In what time zone are the events showing, and how do I change that?
If you have not set your time zone, the events will show in American Pacific Time. To change your time zone click on the View All button for the Calendar from your home page. At the bottom of the page is a drop down list where you can change the time zone.
