This guide explains how to add a new Coaching Product within the Clubnest dashboard. Coaching Products represent coaching sessions that can be booked by parents or juniors. Each product can contain multiple session dates, booking options, and related safety assessments.
Accessing the Coaching Product Section
- Log in to the admin dashboard.
- In the sidebar, navigate to Junior Management > Coaching Sessions.
- Click the Create button to begin creating a new coaching product.
Section 1: General
This section contains the core details about the product.
- Title
Enter the name of the coaching product. This is what users will see on the website. - Description
Provide a full description of the session. This should include the skills being taught, equipment required, and what participants can expect. - Coach
Select the coach who will be leading this session. - Location (optional)
Select the location or venue where the session will take place. - Child (optional)
If the product is intended for a specific child (e.g., 1-to-1 coaching), you can link it here. - Junior Session
Toggle this on if the session is exclusively for juniors. - Price Per Hour (£)
Enter the hourly price. The final cost is calculated based on the duration booked. - Image
Upload or select an image using the media picker. This image is used on the frontend listing.
Section 2: SEO
This section allows you to configure the SEO and public URL for the product.
- SEO URL
This is automatically generated from the title but can be edited. It defines the URL users will visit. - SEO Metadata
Provide a title and description for search engines. You can also specify the author and configure the robots meta tag if needed.
Section 3: Sessions
Each Coaching Product can contain one or more bookable sessions. For each session, you will complete two steps:
Step 1: Session Details
- Start Time
Date and time the session begins. - End Time
Date and time the session ends. - Block Booking
Enable this if users must book the full session as a block. Disabling it allows hourly booking. - Maximum Participants
Set the maximum number of attendees allowed for the session. - Maximum Booking Time (hours)
Define the maximum number of hours a user can book within this session. - Minimum Booking Time (hours)
Define the minimum number of hours required to book the session.
Step 2: Risk Assessment
Each session supports both static and dynamic risk assessments.
Static Risk Assessment
Used for known risks identified during session planning.
- Risk Description
- Cause
- Severity (Low / Medium / High)
- Mitigation Measures
- New Severity After Mitigation
- Submitted By (automatically filled)
- Created On (automatically set to current date)
Dynamic Risk Assessment
Used for real-time or on-the-day risks that were not planned for in advance.
Fields are the same as the static assessment above.
Saving the Product
Once all required fields are complete:
- Click Create to save the product.
- It will now appear in the Coaching Sessions table.
- You can view, edit, or delete the product as needed.
Managing Existing Products
- Edit
Click the pencil icon next to a product to make changes. - Delete
Click the bin icon to remove the product from the system.
Best Practices
- Use clear and engaging titles and images to increase interest.
- Always include a complete description to help users understand what’s offered.
- Set appropriate booking limits to manage participant flow.
- Complete both static and dynamic risk assessments to support health and safety compliance.
- Make sure at least one session is added for the product to be visible on the frontend.
