Availability:

It is very important that you understand that you are submitting days you are UNAVAILABLE. Everyone starts out by giving RSRA 100% availability, so mark the days you CAN NOT referee. Also, you can update it at any time. As soon as you get your playing/coaching schedules, go ahead and block those time periods out.

REMEMBER this is also used for middle school assignments, so consider your middle school availability on weekdays.

STEPS:
1) Click on "Block Dates & Times" on the left.
2) You will see a calendar of the current month & the current date in yellow.
3) Click on "February" in the upper right corner of the calendar, then "March" in the same location to input March availability. You can continue on through the year this way.
4) To block a whole day:
a. Check the box next to "all day"
b. Click on the date in the calendar, the square will turn yellow. The 2 boxes at the bottom will fill in from 12 AM to 11:59 AM, and when you move to another date the blocked out day will turn red. Continue to click on all dates you are unavailable all day.
c. Click "Done" on the bottom right to go back to your start page.
5) To block partial days:
a. Make sure the "all day" box is not checked.
b. Set the times you are unavailable by using the scrolling for time and AM/PM in the upper right corner. Please have your "From" time to be the time you have to leave a field, and the "To" time to be 30 minutes before you can be at the field.
c. Click on the date you need to block time, it will turn yellow.
d. You can click on all the days that you are unavailable at those times to block them without resetting the time. To change to a different time frame, reset the "From" & "To" and click on the date you want to block out.
e. All dates that are partially blocked are colored in gray. To check on the times blocked, just click on the date and the bottom boxes will show the times.
f. Click "Done" when through
6) Changing availability:
a. To block something that was previously unblocked, follow the same procedures above.
b. To unblock a time or day, click on the date, then the red trashcan on the bottom 2 squares. This will unblock your day.
