Practice Signup Configuration Options - Using a Non-Meet Event with "Practice" Jobs/Shifts

>>Note: This is written from a customer's perspective who came up with this idea. She mentions the drawback at the end.

STEP 1: I set up an Event (not a meet) called "6/29-7/3 Practice Sign-up". Then I created a Job for this event called "Monday, June 29th" and one called "Tuesday, June 30th", etc. through Friday.

STEP 2: Then, in each of these jobs, I created Shifts for each available practice group, called, for example "Practice Group 1: 7:30am-8:10am", "Practice Group 2: 8:20am-9:00am", "Practice Group 3: 7:30am-8:10am", etc. 

NOTE: Each shift name must be unique if you copy jobs after setting up the first one. If not unique, duplicate shift names won't copy even if time etc is different

STEP 3: Then I selected the number of slots available for each of those practice groups as the number of people who can sign up for the "Shift", and I set the points at zero.

STEP 4: I toggled off the flag if someone tries to sign up when they're already scheduled (so that parents will be able to sign up siblings.)

The only obvious problem is that it will have the parent's name, not the swimmer's name, on the sign-up sheet. I can override that on the back end myself with the swimmer name, but in the case of siblings I could have a little confusion or extra work, but I think overall it should work pretty well and there's a significant advantage to having it all in Swimtopia. I'll make a new "Event" for each week, since I'd like to be able to email just the people signed up for "shifts" that week.
