Boxing coaches: booking private pad sessions online

How boxing coaches can take bookings for private pad sessions: session lengths, a weekly slot for regulars, partner sessions, gym times and what boxers bring.

5 min read

Private pad sessions fill the gaps between group classes, and boxers ask for them by message at all hours. Put them on your booking page: one service per format, slots on the hours the gym or ring is free, and a fixed weekly slot for regulars booked from your list. Boxers book a time without waiting for your reply, the ring isn't double-booked, and your one-to-one income becomes predictable.

One service per format

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description shown on your public page, and each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Durations and prices are examples: set your own.

Slots around the gym timetable

Open private slots only when the ring or a corner of the gym is free, outside group classes. Slots repeat each week on the weekdays you choose until an end date. When a slot is booked, it leaves your page, so two boxers never turn up for the same time.

A weekly slot for regulars

Boxers training for a fight or a fitness goal want the same time each week. Book their next weeks yourself from your bookings list; first and last name are enough, and if you enter their email, they get a confirmation with a calendar file for each session.

Partner sessions

Two friends sharing a session can book one partner service with one place; ask for the second person's name in the note. Each online booking takes one place, so they don't need to book twice.

What boxers bring

Say in each description what to bring: wraps, gloves if you don't lend them, water, a towel. The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note where boxers can say their level and goal, such as "beginner" or "amateur bout in six weeks".

Several coaches

Book has one booking page per business and no staff field. Give each coach their own pad session services, such as "Pads with Sami"; slots of different services can overlap if there's room.

Changes and payments

Boxers can't move or cancel online: they message you and you move the session from your list. Book doesn't take payments or session packs, so say how you're paid. Book doesn't send reminders. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
