Division of heats (distribution of best runners over heats) in connection with the final afterwards.

Question

Hi,

I want to create a heat schedule based on times. I don't want the athletes with the best performance (personal best) to be in the same heat, but rather evenly distributed throughout the heats. So fast and slower athletes will be mixed together in the heats. They will go on to the final based on their performance in the heat.

Can I do this automatically (if so, which method) or do I have to do it manually?

Answer 1

You can use a ZigZag method for this. Athletes are then divided over the different heats so that the fastest athletes are never in the same heat. Then, in combination with the ZigZag method, you can select different options for how you want the track to be arranged within a heat.
