Athletics.app lists the name of the event on the startlists. When setting up the events per category, you can choose to list an event with or without weight specification. Depending on what you choose, the weight will or will not appear on the startlist. This sounds like fun, but I'm being given problems as competition secretary.
We almost always merge categories in our competitions. For that reason, when creating the competition, I choose to only enter the name of the event without specifying the weight.

Now I have already received a few requests from competitors to include the weight after all. The reason for these requests is that performances entered with only the name of the event are not included in the (automated?) rankings.

My question now is: can something be done about this, so that these performances are also included in the rankings? Of course, at every official competition, each category is thrown with the correct weight.

You do NOT have to select the event with weight specification. Even if an event does NOT have a weight specification, it is automatically added to the Dutch Rankings. The rankings automatically determine the official weight of the category the athlete competed in, and the performance is automatically added to the rankings under that weight.
