The life of a season

A season moves through three states. As a player, here's what each one means for what you can see and do.

Draft. The admin is still setting things up — roster, game targets, court/time defaults. You normally can't see a draft season at all. The one exception: if your admin has opened early availability collection for it, you'll see just enough to mark your unavailable weeks, but not a schedule — because there isn't one yet.

Published. The schedule exists and is final (until an admin changes it). You can see your matches, subscribe to the calendar feed, and change requests are open if you need to get out of a week. This is the normal state a season is in for most of its life.

Archived. The season is over and locked — nothing more can change on it — but it stays visible so you can look back at it. Your calendar subscription for an archived season keeps working, it just won't get new events.

Separately from all three, an admin can hide a season from players — even a published one — without changing its status. If a season you expected to see has disappeared, that's more likely than it having been deleted; ask your admin.
