Introduction to AthleticFIELD
During the 2018-19 season, only 3% of meets on AthleticLIVE used our field scoreboard, and less than 1 percent were high school meets. In 2024-25, over 4,500 AthleticLIVE meets, from dual meets to major championships, used AthleticFIELD for live field results. We hope that this multi-platform app (Android, iOS, and web) will help many more meets take advantage of live field results.
Field athletes and spectators deserve the same instant access to results as track athletes.
This page explains how the AthleticFIELD App works at a high level.
The Basics
Because this is an Android and iOS app, timers can purchase devices or recruit tech-savvy people at each meet who can enter results on their own devices.
AthleticFIELD synchronizes with your meet management system to import start lists and export entries. This synchronization can happen Online or with a Local Network. There are pros and cons to both.
Importing start lists and exporting results requires an internet connection. Once start lists are in the app, the app can operate without internet. If there is a momentary blip in internet service, results collection will be unaffected.

Configuration
Configure the event's measurement, attempts, qualification standards, and vertical heights on a single page before synchronizing to individual devices. It takes just a couple minutes to set up all of your meet's field events.
Results
As you enter results into AthleticFIELD, real-time results appear on AthleticLIVE.
