Athletes & Teams
Manage rosters, assign teams, and import data from CSV files. Requires Director.
Adding Athletes
Athletes can be added individually or imported in bulk. Each athlete has:
- Name — First and last name
- Identifier — Bib number, lane, race number (depends on sport type)
- Team — Optional team assignment
- Gender — For gender-specific event placement
- Age Group / Category — For age-group competitions
- Metadata — Additional custom fields
Team Management
Create teams to organize athletes. Each team has:
- Team name and short name/abbreviation
- Primary color (used in reports and overlays)
- Roster of assigned athletes
CSV Import
Import athlete and team data from CSV files for quick roster setup. The flexible import system:
- Auto-detects columns — Recognizes common column names like "Name", "First Name", "Bib", "Team", etc.
- Preview before import — See how the data will map before committing
- Manual column mapping — Override auto-detection if needed
Tip: Export a roster from your existing meet management software (Athletic.net, MileSplit, Hy-Tek) as CSV, then import it directly into RaceTimerPro.
Meet Import
For complete meet setup, use the Meet Import feature to load a full event schedule with entries, athletes, teams, and seed times from a single CSV file.
