Answered: Print list of competitors for a competition with key information like Date of Birth?

Mon, 07 Jul 2025 19:43:30 +0000

That is certainly possible. To do this, go to the tab "competitors", then on the right it says "excel download". If you click on that, an excel file will open with all the data.

Answered: How can I print all results for each race at the end of a meeting?

You can choose "print results", select all the races and then choose "individual leaderboard" as shown:

Answered: Results Women Seniors not visible

Wed, 01 Nov 2017 12:51:26 +0000

This is a well-known problem. It has to do with the name of a "Leaderboard".
Make sure that you use both a category designation and a gender designation in the name of a leaderboard (right drop-down menu --> "Leaderboards settings").

Good:
Men Seniors
Women Seniors

Wrong:
Men

Answered: Printer suddenly prints in a different format/scale, so that the print no longer fits on the diploma.

Tue, 27 Jun 2017 13:00:25 +0000

Every printer is different and can have very extensive print settings. Unfortunately, Athletics.app cannot influence these settings. Each printer has options for scaling/reducing/enlarging pages, etc. This can indeed change the positioning of the prints. Make sure you test this on the same computer and printer beforehand and use it to print out the diplomas during the competition. This will minimize the chance of the above problem occurring :)

Answered: Requesting diplomas as PDF after a competition

Mon, 20 Feb 2017 13:47:42 +0000

Parents and children can view their performance online, for example in their profile or in the overall results lists. It will not be possible to send diplomas by PDF or in any other way to parents, who would then have to print them out themselves. This does not fit in with our vision of how a competition administration package should work/be used. Athletics.app has 3 different methods for quickly printing diplomas immediately after the competition. The 3 methods range from very simple to very advanced, so that every user is able to print diplomas quickly. In 1-2 months, we will introduce the Athletics.app Jury app. This means you will no longer have to enter results manually at the competition office and the results will be available immediately after the event, giving you even more time to print the diplomas. We ourselves are also sometimes volunteers at competitions, where we have demonstrated that printing diplomas for 1000 athletes within 15 minutes is quite doable.

Answered: How do you keep the result of the last event in a combined-events competition hidden until after the award ceremony?

Wed, 05 Oct 2016 11:31:56 +0000

You can hide the top 10 per leaderboard. All results will be shown, but not the combined-events points total. You can find this option in your competition in the right drop-down menu --> 'Hide top 10'. The top 10 will then be shuffled, and the ranking and combined-events points total will be hidden.

Answered: Which printer can I use to print diplomas?

Thu, 29 Sep 2016 14:53:46 +0000

Diplomas are fun for children and they usually love getting their diploma immediately after the competition. In principle, you can use any printer to print out diplomas from Athletics.app. We advise you to try this out before the competition. Print a number of diplomas in a row and time them with a stopwatch to calculate how long it would take to print out all the competitors' diplomas.

Not fast enough? We can print 350 diplomas in 5 minutes! This way you can be sure to give the children their diplomas immediately after the ceremony. The printer we use and recommend is: HP Officejet Pro X551dw. At the moment (29-09-2016) this printer costs approx. 260-300 euros to purchase, including VAT. Click here for an up-to-date price overview

Tip about this printer: Set the print quality to 'General Office'. This is the 'worst' quality, but for printing black and white text on a diploma, this will look perfect. This will give you the highest print speed with this printer, namely 70 pages per minute. Otherwise, you will only print at 42 pages per minute.

UPDATE (2017-02-16): The recommended printer appears to be difficult to obtain because it is an outdated model. Possible comparable models are:

HP PageWide Pro 452dw (55 ppm)
HP Officejet Pro X551dw (70 ppm) hard to find
HP PageWide Pro 452dn (55 ppm) hard to find
HP PageWide Pro 552dw (70 ppm) hard to find

Answered: IAAF or Dutch Athletics Federation scoring formulas?

Thu, 29 Sep 2016 11:55:48 +0000

For each competition, the organization can choose which scoring formula they want to use for each category. In Athletics.app, they can choose between the IAAF and the Dutch Athletics Federation scoring formulas. You can ask the competition organizers which scoring formula will be used for that competition.

Answered: When printing out combined-events standings, how do I get to see the points per event as well and not just achievements

Tue, 09 Aug 2016 14:39:56 +0000

You can also print all the results on paper. You first download a PDF file which you can then print.

For combined-events where many events are done, it may happen that this does not all fit on 1 A4. Athletics.app recognizes this and if there are too many events in the combined-events then Athletics.app hides the points per event, so everything still fits on 1 A4.

Answered: We do not want to distinguish between the many dozens of categories, just one result for Men and Women

Thu, 16 Jun 2016 08:58:25 +0000

You can combine multiple categories in the results, so that they appear on 1 results list.

You set this up through the right-hand management menu --> 'Leaderboards settings'

There you can create leaderboards, 1 for the men. 1 for the women. Then select all the men's categories for the men's leaderboards, and the same for the women.

For example:

Through these steps you can print out the results for each event, see also the screenshot.

See the Wizard above, at step 4 choose "Results by Team (pdf)'

Because of the large size different events per team, unfortunately it is not possible to make a nice overview of this on PDF.
You can however print the web page where you can find the team results, by going to that page and entering the key combination: CTRL + P, pressing.

You can also download from Athletics.app the results as excel and publish them yourself in another desired format on the website.
