Keeping track of games.

I have a few scrimmages scheduled and would like to hear how everyone is keeping track of games. The last thing I would want to do is schedule two different games on the same night.

Thank you.
Kevin

Arbiter.
Excel.
Google Calendar.

I use all three and enter every game in every place.

I use Arbiter as well.

I then download my games into Outlook calendar, which is synced to my Blackberry. I color code my Outlook calendar with all of my games, meetings and clinics.

My assignors all use Arbiter, and I keep track of the details of every assignment in an Excel file (time, place, level, # of games, pay, when I was assigned, partner's name, and mileage).

For me, this is mostly for tax purposes.

RefTown, Excel spreadsheet, and Notes/Outlook calendar. It's a pain to have to keep them all updated, but helps double and triple check my assignments.

Oh, don't forget to also copy your significant other as well. Bad things happen when games get scheduled and they are not aware of it. Bad things I'm telling you....

Those 3 plus my Microsoft Outlook.

I use the export feature in Arbiter to import my schedule into my Outlook calendar. I forward my games from there to my Google calendar b/c I can get to that on my cell phone (I only have a basic phone, no berry's/droids/iphones/smartphones).

I use Excell to track my pay and bounce it against Arbiter.
