AthleticRUNMEET XC

AthleticRUNMEET XC can greatly simplify the process of preparing for Cross Country competitions. RunMeet XC saves you time and integrates with the entry collection functions of an AthleticNET meet, on the Manage Meet page. In RunMeet you can quickly seed the meet, print entries, results, rosters, and enter results for quick publishing to AthleticNET and AthleticLIVE.

SETUP AND SETTINGS

To get started go to your event page and click on RunMeet

You will then see the Start Now screen for RunMeet XC. Click the Start Now Tab.

This will take you through the setup process for RunMeet XC. The first thing you need to decide is whether you are timing your event by Hand or with a Fully Automatic Timing system (FAT) that outputs a LIF file. The options are:

1. Toggle the Auto Import Result (.lif) Files to OFF if you are Hand Timing.
2. Toggle the Auto Import Result (.lif) Files to ON if you are using Fully Automatic Timing.

Filter Results by Entry

The next step is to decide if you need to 'Filter Results by Entry'. When 'Filter Results by Entry' is turned on for an event, when RunMeet XC imports a .LIF results file, the results will be created only for athletes who have an entry in the selected event and division.

Assigning Bib Numbers

The final step in meet setup is to allocate Bib Numbers to athletes as follows:

1. Leave Registered Athletes Only unchecked if everyone associated with clubs / teams should be allocated a Bib Number or check Registered Athletes Only and only those that entered will be given a Bib Number.
2. Decide what number you want the Bibs to start from.
3. Determine how you want the Bib numbers to be allocated. You can change the order of priority by clicking the 6 black dots and drag and dropping them to the order you want the bibs to be allocated.
4. Once you are happy with your selections, click Done.

ON THE DAY MANAGEMENT

Once you have completed the Meet setup and settings process, you will be able to manage the Meet from RunMeet XC without too much difficulty. On the screen will now show:

1. Revisit your meet settings you have just completed (Clicking the Cog Wheel).
2. Your events (Races that are to be held at your Meet).
3. How many athletes are entered into each event.
4. How many athlete results have been added for each event.
5. If the event is completed OR not (If this box is green, it has been completed).
6. Quick link buttons to your Athletes, Print Reports, Make Your Event Live with AthleticLIVE, and your overall Meet settings.
   1. Athlete. By clicking this button you will be able to:

      

      1. Add Athlete. Quickly add an athlete not in the meet.
         This will also assign the Athlete back to their Club / Team.
      2. Refresh Athletes. If a Administrator or Coach adds an Athlete in their Club / Team page, click the Refresh Athletes and that Athlete will pull through into your meet. You will need to manually assign as Bib Number to this Athlete by clicking the # pencil next to the Athletes name.
      3. Assign Competition Numbers. If you want to assign competition numbers to a group of new athletes, or reassign competition numbers to everyone, click Assign Comp # and follow the steps to allocate the competition numbers for the Athletes in the meet.
      4. Clear Competition Numbers. Click Clear Comp # if you want to fully remove all competition numbers.
   2. Print Reports button to help manage your meet. More information can be found further down the page.
   3. Click the Live button to initiate AthleticLIVE for your Meet. More information can be found further down the page.
   4. If you want further global Meet options, click the Burger Menu. In here you can fully reset RunMeet for the current Meet.

Entries and Results

If you click on an Event, the screen will drop down and you will see on the screen your entries, plus the Entries and Results tabs and the +Add Entry on the bottom of each Event.

1. Click on either of the Entries or Results tabs to manage your race day requirements. Results can be entered either manaually (Hand Times) or through a Fully Automatic Timing (FAT) system. More info on FAT Integration below. For Hand Times follow this process:

   

   1. Click on the box Enter Name or Bib # and add this detail first.
   2. Enter the Hand Time recorded for the athlete.
   3. You will now see that the event has recorded one result (which is highlighted by the blue 1). You will then see the Mark Complete tab appear. Click this to finalise the Event.

      

2. Add an entry by clicking the +Add Entry tab and you can add either the Bib number of the Athlete or seach for the Athlete by their name. You will see a list of options appear above the box as you type in the details. Choose the athlete that you want to add. If the athlete does not exist in the Meet, you will need to click Athletes as per 6(a) above.
