Season Calendar

The full-season scaffold of camps, competitions, testing, and time off — events that flow into the Plan on their dates.

Lay the season's fixed points — camps, competitions, testing, time off — on one year-long wall.

The Planner is on Yarmill's newer design and is being actively refreshed; Plan and Planner are slated to merge over time. Exact controls may change, but the core mechanics below are stable.

The Season Calendar (also called the Planner) keeps the whole season legible at a glance. Events you add here flow automatically into the Plan on their dates, so each week carries its context without re-typing. And because athletes can add their own events, the calendar doubles as a coach–athlete communication channel.

Event types

Every event has a type, which sets its default colour so the wall reads at a glance. This instance uses seven:

Competition event
A competition-day event (pink by default).
Competition
A race or competition (red).
Training camp
A camp (amber).
Training
A training block (purple).
Vacation
Time off (green).
Test
A testing day (blue).
Other
Anything else (cyan).
The event-type list and its default colours are configured per team — your instance may have different types and colours. When you add an event you can also recolour it from a swatch palette, independent of its type.

The year wall

The wall shows the whole year with months as columns and days as rows, so a season fits on one screen. Each event is a coloured block spanning its dates, with a small date kicker (e.g. "SAT 14 - TUE 17") above its title.

A GROUP panel in the left sidebar scopes the wall: pick Entire Group for the whole squad's events, or an athlete to see theirs. A year selector and filter sit in the top bar; footer controls zoom the wall's density and scroll across the months.

Add an event

Open the add-event panel

Select New event (+) in the top bar. A panel opens for the new event.

Name it and choose a type

Set the title, then pick the event type — which sets its colour. You can recolour it from the swatch palette if you want.

Set the dates

Choose Starts and Ends. Both default to today, so a new event is a single day until you extend it into a range.

Add location, attributes, and a note

Optionally add a location, attributes (tags configured for your team), and a note — logistics, agenda, links.

Create the event

Select Create event. The event appears as a block on the wall and surfaces on its dates in the Plan.

Opening the add-event panel auto-creates and saves a draft event on today's date straight away — so abandoning the panel without finishing can leave a stray "New event" on the wall. Open an event and delete it (the trash icon, with a confirmation) to clear it.

The event's scope follows the GROUP-panel selection at the time you create it — Entire Group, or the athlete you have open.

Event sets

The Events box (the clipboard icon in the top bar) opens a library of reusable event sets — predefined collections you can pull onto the wall in one go, such as an official competition calendar for the year.

How events reach the Plan

Every event flows automatically into the Plan on its dates, locked and read-only, so the week always carries its camp or competition context without re-entry. To change an event, edit it back here in the Season Calendar, not in the Plan.

What athletes can do

Athletes can add their own events — a family holiday, an exam, a wedding — so the coach sees what's coming in an athlete's life before planning load against it. An athlete opens the Planner, selects New event (+), and creates the event (for example a Vacation block) the same way a coach does; it appears on the same wall.

Locking an event

Beyond being locked in the Plan, an event can be locked outright so it can't be changed by accident — useful for fixed dates like a national championships.

How it connects

  • Events flow into the Plan on their dates and are locked there — the Season Calendar is the single source of truth for events.
  • Goals and the Training Log share the same planning and daily structure, so the season's fixed points line up with the work logged against them.
