Coach Calendar View for Athletes' Events (in one place)
Training Peaks is such a great platform for coaching multiple athletes and helping coaches to make a living.
The key to coaching athletes is to help them in achieving their goals in their events.
Right now, there is no feature that shows the coach all of their clients' events in one place. It would be extremely helpful to have a calendar view for all events for all athletes to ensure coaches don't miss any events. Currently, you would have to mark all of your athletes' events on another platform's calendar. With how dynamic athletes shift or cancel events, having all the information in one place inside of TP would prevent coaches from duplicating the work.

Agree on this one 100% . To be clear - have an events view that lists all my athletes who are attending a specific event. It would also be great to assign an athlete to an event

Current Challenge:
As a coach, I have numerous athletes who sign up for various marathon events. For instance, if 10 of my athletes are participating in the same marathon, I currently have to create an individual event for each athlete. This process is cumbersome and time-consuming.Proposed Enhancement:
I propose that TrainingPeaks introduce a feature to create events in a centralized manner and then apply these events to multiple athletes, similar to how training plans are created and assigned. Here are the key features of this enhancement:Centralized Event Creation:
Allow coaches to create an event once in a centralized location (or it could be a global library of key races created by TP).
Provide options to set event details such as date, time, location, and distance.
Batch Assignment:Enable coaches to assign the created event to multiple athletes simultaneously.
Include options to select athletes individually or by group/team.
Reporting and Dashboard:Introduce a reporting feature that lists upcoming events along with participating athletes.
Include a countdown timer for each event, visible as part of a dashboard for easy tracking.
Allow coaches to generate reports on athlete participation for better planning and communication.
Benefits:Efficiency: Significantly reduces the time and effort required to create and manage events for multiple athletes.
Consistency: Ensures that all athletes receive the same event details, minimizing the risk of errors or discrepancies.
Tracking: Improves the ability to track upcoming events and athlete participation, aiding in better preparation and communication.
This enhancement will greatly benefit coaches by streamlining the process of event management, allowing us to focus more on coaching and less on administrative tasks. -

This is a very frustrating missing feature. When managing high client load it becomes very hard to remember everything. I'd say this is a high priority feature to add.

A coaches consolidated calendar. Be able to have a calendar view that shows all upcoming events for all athletes.
At the moment I need to look at the ATP for each athlete to see what the upcoming events are to ensure I'm setting appropriate settings. It would be useful if on a single calendar view you can see every athlete's events for the next three months.
