# Events & organized activities (/en/consumers/activities)



Thril isn't only about booking a court for yourself. Venues and organizers use Thril to run all kinds of activities you can join. Here's a quick tour of what you might come across.

***

## Events [#events]

One-off happenings put on by a venue, such as a social mixer, a themed night, an open day, or a special session. Browse upcoming events, see who's going, and register (and pay, if there's a fee) right in the app.

***

## Courses [#courses]

Structured, multi-session programs, such as a beginners' padel course or a coaching clinic that runs over several weeks. Join a course to secure your spot across all its sessions.

***

## Classes & group fitness [#classes--group-fitness]

Scheduled sessions like group fitness, yoga, pilates, or crossfit. Sign up for a class to reserve your place, and find everything you've booked under **My activities**.

***

## Services [#services]

Some venues offer bookable **services**, where you book a person and a time rather than just a court. Typical examples include **private coaching**, lessons, personal training, and **racket or club fitting**.

You'll find these under a venue's **Services** tab. To book one:

1. Choose the **service** you want.
2. Pick a **duration**, if more than one is offered.
3. Choose an available **time**.
4. **Pay**, and your service booking appears in **My activities** alongside everything else.

Each service has its own **cancellation deadline**, shown when you book it and in the booking details, so you'll always know by when you can cancel. See [Booking & event terms](/consumers/terms-explained#service-booking-terms).

***

## Tournaments [#tournaments]

Competitive play with a bracket and matches. Join a tournament, follow your progress, and see your results as the rounds play out.

***

## Leagues [#leagues]

Season-long competition with structured rounds and matches against other players or teams. Join a league to take part over a longer stretch and track how you're doing.

***

## Finding activities [#finding-activities]

Organized activities show up on the relevant **venue pages** and in your **Explore** tab. Once you've joined something, it lands in **My activities** alongside your bookings, so everything you're taking part in lives in one place.

### The carousel at the top [#the-carousel-at-the-top]

The carousel at the top of the app's home screen, and of **Explore** on the web, shows your two most recent past activities and your next upcoming ones, five in the app and ten on the web. That covers bookings, events, courses, leagues, services and tee times.

A past activity you haven't paid for yet goes last among the past ones, right before your upcoming activities, and the carousel opens on it. It drops out of the carousel once two newer activities have ended, even if it's still unpaid. You can still pay for it from the activity itself after it has ended.

***

## If an event is full: waitlists [#if-an-event-is-full-waitlists]

When an event is fully booked, the venue may offer a **waitlist**. Join it to hold your place in line; if a spot opens up, you're **moved in automatically** and notified. You can leave the waitlist at any time.

***

## Joining, leaving & terms [#joining-leaving--terms]

Each activity comes with the venue's own terms, covering whether and when you can leave, whether participation is binding once confirmed, and how payment works. You'll see them before you join and in the activity's details. For the full picture, see [Booking & event terms](/consumers/terms-explained) and [Cancellations & refunds](/consumers/cancellations-and-refunds).

## What's next [#whats-next]

These activities are all organized by venues and clubs. Looking for an informal, player-organized game instead? That's a [Pickup](/consumers/pickups), Thril's community feature for players.
