Games

A game is a single match against an opponent. Admins create games; everyone on the team sees them on the Games tab.

Required fields

Every game has:

• Home or away — isHome: true means you host, false means away
• Opponent — free-text name of the other team
• Date and match time — when the game starts
• Status — one of scheduled, completed, cancelled

Optional fields

• Warmup time — separate from the match start, e.g. for arrival
• Arena — pick a saved arena instead of typing the address each time
• Referees — link one or more saved referees
• Notes — free-text, visible to everyone on the team

Lifecycle

A game moves through these states:

1. scheduled — the admin creates the game
2. completed — the match has been played
3. cancelled — the game was called off

A game starts as scheduled. After it's played, an admin can mark it completed. If it's called off, mark it cancelled so the team isn't notified to show up.

Notifications around games

Creating, editing, or cancelling a game emits a notification to the whole team:

• game_created — new game added
• game_updated — fields changed (date, time, arena, etc.)
• game_cancelled — status flipped to cancelled
• game_reminder — sent automatically as the game approaches

See Notifications and alerts for how members manage these.
