Relay is really still completely missing; even in the jury app there is nothing visible of the relay. When will the update that this event is in there properly be coming? This has been on the backlog for a long time.

Yes, the long-awaited and much-requested relay update is finally here.From now on, registering and creating relay teams is just as easy as registering athletes!
What is now possible for relay teams:

  • Create your own Startlists, combine categories or split groups
  • Create your own Heat divisions
  • Full integration with photo finish systems, so you never have to manually retype times again
  • Print paper jury forms, with the bib numbers and names of all the team's runners, compactly on one line. Costs will now be charged per relay team and no longer per individual athlete. The person who registers the relay team pays for that team.
  • For competitions in which only relay events are scheduled, athletes will not receive a bib number, but the relay teams will
  • For competitions in which non-relay events are also scheduled, relay teams will never receive a bib number, but each individual athlete will

I wonder how the combination teams are doing in the competition. It is not possible for a club to select the combination team (at least, I don't see the combination team listed...)..... Can you confirm that the result goes to the right team?

It also seems that heats are not being used, but that the teams are being categorized like a technical jury. When I try to set the number of lanes per heat to 6, it does not work....

May 2021, next month :)

From then on, the relays will work exactly the same as any other event. You can then create your own heat divisions, work with reserve lists, assign bib numbers easily, enter best/target performances and register one relay team for multiple relay events. The relays will then also appear in the jury app and in the integration with the photo finish.

Apparently May 2021 did not work out. When will we get that long-awaited update?

We are indeed still working hard. It is turning out to be a lot more work than expected. The expectation is June 2021 (this month even)...

June was also missed. We had hoped to be able to use it on July 3. What is the prognosis now?
