Just wondered if anybody knows how to create your own fixture list for the iPhone, similar to the iCal fixture list for CFC fixtures.

I want to generate one for my Sunday morning team to share with the rest of the players so they have all our fixtures at the touch of a button on their phones.

The way i created the .csv that is uploaded to https://docs.google....29iY2xxR3M/edit was using notepad, i then imported the .csv into a new Google calendar online, once this was done i was able to export the calendar as a .ics file which i believe is iPhone friendly.

If you download the .csv file from https://docs.google....29iY2xxR3M/edit and then log into your Google account online, you can go to the calendar and within settings you get an import option. If you do that you can then sync the new calendar to your Android like i have done.

Best way is to set up a Google Calendar account. I have one and use this not only for my personal one and things like the town fixtures but also to do stuff for the footy and cricket sides i play for and share them with other people. They can then subscribe to them either on their phone, via Google Calendar or Outlook etc and not only do they get what you've entered initially but they will also get any changes that you make automatically. This wont happen if you create and share a CSV file for example.

Yep...complete doddle to add them to an iphone, i've been using that site you link to for the last few seasons, and have your own copy of our fixtures etc but i think the opening poster wants to create and run something similar for his own team so its a bit different.

Assume you found the share option under calendar settings. Now on the settings page for the calendar there are three coloured buttons for XML, iCal and HTML. If you click those it gives you links that you can send to folk for them to add the calendar. I think for iPhone users if you send them the link brought up by clicking the green iCal button it should work for them.

Never used an android phone so not sure to be honest. How have you set it up initially? I thought that when you set it up via something like Google Calendar then its a bog standard calendar file that could be used on most things. Not sure how support for them works on Android though.

**Edit**
Not sure if this is of any use. Looks like it can be done but its not as straightforward as it is on an iPhone.
