Uploading from Race Day Scoring to AthleticLIVE
Summary
The RaceDay Scoring -> AthleticLIVE integration is brand new during the 2026 XC season! Please let us know if you run into any issues! Click here to view the corresponding RaceDay Scoring documentation.
To begin, please download and install AthleticLOCAL, our middleware that facilitates uploads between RaceDay Scoring and AthleticLIVE. Open AthleticLOCAL to get started.
Getting Started
- Create your meet in AthleticLIVE (learn more).
- Choose "RaceDay Scoring" as your meet management system
- Choose "RaceDay Scoring" as your FAT system (if using a pro meet credit to show a live scoreboard during races)
- Choose "Manual Timing" as your running time system (if using a pro meet credit to show a live scoreboard during races)
- AthleticLOCAL will read a specific report format generated by RaceDay Scoring from a local directory and upload to AthleticLIVE. Follow the RaceDay Scoring help doc to create a report, add events, and enable autosaving.
- Open AthleticLOCAL: Select your meet, then choose the directory that will contain all events, rosters, and results files
If you don't see your meet in the dropdown, ensure your Upload Protocols are enabled

- After hitting start, you should see your events and teams on AthleticLIVE within a couple of minutes.
Race Day Operation
- Once you've selected your meet and your events appear on the AthleticLIVE page, click on "Race Day Scoring Settings" in the AthleticLOCAL sidebar. You should see all of your events from that meet.
- If you have a pro meet and are using a live scoreboard, when an event is ready to go live, change the status to "Live". This will allow race results to stream to the real-time scoreboard. Once an event is live, you can start a manual running time.
- When an event is done, change the status to "Final". This is the equivalent of uploading final results from any other meet management system. Results will appear on athlete/team pages and sync to AthleticNET.
- Changing the status back to "None" will erase a live scoreboard and/or final results.
- If you've tested data and want to reset back to a clean slate, reset the meet and delete all scoreboards.
Best Practices
- Set your split names if your races have splits. This is required.
- Your race names should contain both the gender and the distance. This helps ensure athletes have the right gender and that events are matched to the correct distance when results are pushed to AthleticNET.
