Invoicing for block bookings.
A 30-week junior league. A regular Tuesday-night training slot. The visiting Sunday side that takes the pitch every fortnight. Set the pattern once and LemonBooking generates the season's calendar and invoices the whole series automatically — skip bank holidays and fixture postponements as you go.
Recurring season bookings
Weekly, fortnightly, every Tuesday August–April, term-time only — the patterns clubs and leagues actually use, with one-off skip dates for postponed fixtures and bank holidays.
Whole-series invoicing
Invoice the whole run in one go, or slice it into monthly instalments. Each league or regular hirer gets a profile page with sessions booked, emails sent and what's still outstanding.

Frequently asked questions
Anything we haven't covered, drop us a line.
Can members get a different rate from non-members?
Yes — set a member rate and a non-member rate for any pitch, court or clubhouse. When a member logs in to book they only see their member price, and non-members see the standard price. Junior, senior and affiliated-club rates work the same way.
Is there a free trial for our sports club?
Yes — LemonBooking is free to try for 30 days with no card required, so you can run it as a free online booking system for sports clubs while you decide. We help with the initial setup so your pitches, courts and clubhouse are ready to book from day one.
How do recurring league and training bookings work?
Set the pattern once — every Tuesday 19:30, term-time only, the whole season — and LemonBooking generates the calendar entries and the invoices for the entire run. Skip dates for bank holidays or fixture postponements are supported, and you can invoice the whole series in one go.
Can we take card payments and deposits?
Yes — take card payments and deposits online when a pitch, court or the clubhouse is booked. Members and casual players pay on the spot, deposits are held against higher-value bookings, and your cancellation and refund rules are enforced automatically.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes — LemonBooking works in any web browser, so members and players book from any phone, tablet or computer with nothing to install. Club volunteers and committee members can approve bookings, chase memberships and check the diary on the move.
Ready to try LemonBooking at your sports club?
30 days free. No card required. We do the initial setup with you so your pitches, courts, clubhouse and memberships are ready to go on day one.
