To place competitors on relay teams or not?

Question

For a pupil competition, relay teams were entered by a club, but without competitors. For none of their competitors, the relay was entered as an event.

Other clubs have assigned reserve runners to a team, but without a position, and others have assigned the competitor to the event relay, but not to a team.

What is the correct way?

Is it necessary to adjust it beforehand or can I just make the startlists, partly without names, and ask for the actual competitors on race day? For the cost it doesn't matter because the relay is free.

Answer 1

You do no participants need to be on a relay team.

An incomplete relay team is no problem.

A relay team with more competitors than allowed (e.g., a spare runner) is also no problem.

You can always print startlists for relays regardless of the competitors who are on the teams
