FOR FAMILIES

Book a camp in a couple of minutes. Keep everything in one place.

Booking a sports camp on FormSide takes one form for all your children, paid by card or bank transfer, and every pass, balance and message lives in your account afterwards. No account is needed to book.

HOW BOOKING WORKS

Three steps, and the place is held the whole time. Camps or weekly blocks.

  1. 01

    Hold a place

    When you start booking, a place is held for you while you fill in the form. If the camp is full, join the waitlist and a freed place is offered to you with its own deadline.

  2. 02

    One form

    Book more than one child in a single checkout and pay one total. Each child gets their own booking and admission pass under one family reference.

  3. 03

    Pay your way

    Pay by card, or by bank transfer using the unique reference and deadline you are given. Where the organiser offers it, pay a deposit and the rest in instalments.

  4. 04

    Camps or weekly blocks

    A camp can be booked whole or by the day. A weekly programme — eight Tuesdays at 17:30, say — is one booking for the whole block, with every session date listed on your pass and confirmation.

YOUR ACCOUNT

Everything from every camp, in one login.

Sign in with your email and every booking you have made is there, whichever organiser it was with. The step-by-step version, including how to update medical notes after booking, is in the help centre for families.

Sign in to your account

Every booking and admission pass

One pass per child, with a QR code for the desk and the timetable — or, for a weekly programme, every session date. Save it to your phone before the day.

Balances and references

See what is paid, what is outstanding and the exact reference to use so the organiser can match your transfer.

Saved children

Date of birth, medical notes and emergency contact are kept in your account, so you never retype them next season.

Messages with the organiser

Ask about drop-off, kit or dietary needs in one thread from your account. Replies are emailed to you as well, and unread messages are flagged when you sign in.

ON THE DAY

The desk already knows your child.

  • Show the QR pass at the desk

    Staff scan it to check your child in. Medical notes and allergies are in front of them as your child arrives.

  • Say who may collect

    Add a collection note to the booking. It is shown to staff at check-out so the right adult collects your child.

  • Your child's group and coach

    Organisers split a camp into coach groups. Staff at the desk see which group your child is in and who is coaching it, so hand-over goes to the right person.

  • If something happens, you are told

    An injury, a child feeling unwell, a near miss: staff record it at the time, and the organiser emails you in writing with what happened and what was done.

AFTER CAMP

Photos and a quick “how was it?”

  • Photos, only if you said yes

    Photo consent is off by default and asked for on the booking form. Camp photos are shown in your account only for bookings where you gave consent.

  • “How was it?”

    An hour after camp ends you are asked for a rating and a comment, with no sign-in needed. It is shown publicly only with your explicit consent; private feedback — what went well, what to improve — goes to the organiser alone, and they can reply.

  • Keep the conversation going

    Messages with the organiser stay in your account after camp, alongside the pass and the receipt, so next season starts where this one left off.

IS IT SAFE?

You name who collects. Staff sign your child out. Medical notes stay with the team.

Your money goes to the organiser, not FormSide, and every organiser confirms its legal name and address before it can publish. One page explains all of it, in plain language.

YOUR DATA

Medical notes are sensitive. We treat them that way.

Care and safety details are kept for the camp. Anything optional is off until you switch it on. Read the privacy notice

Marketing only if you opt in

Camp news from an organiser is an explicit, default-off opt-in, with an unsubscribe link in every email.
