How the desk runs
One platform, from the rota to the weekly pay run.
Set the pattern once
A club needs a coach for a weekend holiday camp. Nights, alternate weeks, particular days to a month end — set the pattern once and the run is created rather than entered shift by shift.
Work the whole run together
A big order arrives as a run of shifts, not one booking. Work all of them together, with filled, working and open counters moving as the desk covers them.
Break and fatigue rules applied
The fatigue, break, recent-hours and duration checks you have configured sit alongside the booking, so no coach is rota'd into a pattern that breaks them.
Today, across every club
Timeline puts the day's shifts across all clubs in one view. What decides whether the contract is kept is whether the coach is cleared and qualified for the age group, and the gaps are visible before a manager has to ring.
Hours in, week paid
PAYE with AWR and holiday pay for sessional staff, built from the hours actually worked once the club has approved them.
Cover and fill-rate
Dashman shows fill-rate by club, cover by session and the qualifications you are short of.
Checks and clearances
Safeguarding confirmed before any placement
Where a role involves children or vulnerable adults, clearance and first aid gate the placement. Both sit on the worker record with expiry alerts.

Questions
Shift Sporting recruitment software questions.
Can it handle repeating rota patterns?
Set the pattern once — nights, alternate weeks, particular days to a month end — and the run of shifts is created from it rather than entered one at a time.
Are break and fatigue rules enforced?
The fatigue, break, recent-hours and duration checks you configure sit alongside the booking, so the desk sees the conflict before the coach is committed to it.
How are a run of shifts filled quickly?
Bulk shift copy and the Booking Desk work a whole run together, with filled, working and open counters moving as the desk fills them.
Does approved time feed payroll directly?
Approved hours build the weekly pay queue and carry into invoicing in the same run, rather than being re-keyed into a separate payroll system.
What checks do sporting placements need?
Where a role involves children or vulnerable adults, clearance and first aid gate the placement. Both sit on the worker record with expiry alerts. The desk holds enhanced DBS with expiry alerts where the role requires it, coaching qualifications with expiry alerts, first aid certification on the worker record, references confirmed on the worker record.
