1.3.2 High Jump
1.3.2.1 Simple High Jump Entry
If the “Simple HJ Entry” option is ticked on in settings (it is off by default), high jump results can be entered just like sprint events.
Enter the best heights cleared for each athlete in meters (i.e. a result of 0.72 would be 72cm). If there is a tie then a window will show when exiting the results screen, by either tapping “Back” or the "Home" icon:
In this screen you can enter tie break information. To start, only “Level Attempts” will show. Tap on one of the grey circles (or other icons to change) to set the attempts the athlete took at the best height. If there is still a tie then the “Total Failures” edit box will appear. This is where you can enter a number indicating the total number of failures across all attempts the athlete made at all heights. If there is still a tie after this then the places will be equal.
1.3.2.2 Traditional High Jump Entry
In the Traditional HJ option, the user will enter the results for each of the three attempts at the current height by selecting the appropriate circle (green for a successful attempt, red for a failed attempt, or yellow for a skipped attempt). The results represent different possible outcomes for each attempt.
- Green Circle (O): Indicates a successful attempt.
- Red Cross (X): Indicates a failed attempt.
- Orange Dash (-): Indicates an attempt that was skipped.
- Grey Circle (O): Indicates that there is no result yet.
- Click on the high jump event to view the result edit screen.
- If no height has been set a screen will show to set the first height. Set the height of the bar by dragging the arrow to the height we want to set and click save. If the height is not set, you will not be allowed to enter results for any athlete.
- Once a height has been set, click on an athlete to enter results as attempts. Standard HJ countback logic (attempts at tied height and total failures) is applied to break ties. These values (if any are required) are shown in the HJ place summary screen.
1.3.2.3 HJ Place Summary
The Place Summary screen displays the ranking of the athletes, with icons representing 1st (Gold trophy), 2nd (Silver trophy), and 3rd (Bronze trophy) places. The HJ Place Summary screen goes one step further and displays a summary of results for each height which you can navigate by scrolling horizontally.
The HJ Place Summary Screen also serves to show any countback logic if there are ties. Attempts at tied height and total failures is applied to break ties. The green circle represents attempts at tied height and the red X represents total failures. For e.g.: refer the below image where the tie between Amberly and Felix has been broken by establishing that even though they had equal number of attempts (3) at their tied height, Amberly had only 2 total failures while Felix had 3, which places Amberly above Felix.
1.3.3 Field Events
This covers all field events excluding High Jump.
Click on an athlete to enter a result.
When entering values, you can simply enter numbers by adding punctuation. The entered results can have 2 decimal place values.
The Status field indicates the status for the athlete. Upon pressing the Status field, you will see that the athlete’s status can be set to:
- OK - the default status for any valid result.
- DSQ - Indicates athlete was disqualified from the event (no result but they get attendance points if applicable).
- Participate - participated but couldn’t obtain a result (no result but they get attendance points if applicable).
- No Jump/Throw - Indicates athlete didn’t finish the event (no result but they get attendance points if applicable).
Order - the order field is a numerical field where you can enter a value and use that to group/sort athletes. Multiple athletes can have the same order value.
Sorting Athletes

- ID - Identification number
- First name - Athletes first name
- Last name - Athletes last name
- PB - Personal best timing

1.3.4 Place Summary
The Place Summary screen displays the ranking of the athletes, with icons representing 1st (Gold trophy), 2nd (Silver trophy), and 3rd (Bronze trophy) places.
1.4 Screen layout
The main meet screen is split into List/Matrix views with the list view being the default. Filtering will allow to filter based on gender/age/events. Clicking on meet selection will take you back to the Select meet screen which also acts like a back button.
1.4.1 List view
List view is the default where all meets set up are listed in event order. If a result is added to any event in this screen, it will automatically migrate it to the results tab. Tapping on an event will allow you to view more detailed information or to manage participants. When filtering in the list view you can enable/disable “events with results” and “events without results” in the list view. Events with results will have a grey border.
1.4.2 Matrix view
The matrix view will display the events in a 3-grid format for the mobile and 6 for the tab. This is primarily used to bulk input results for athletes of multiple age/gender for a single event.
Age/genders for a single event type are grouped together and you can multi-select age/gender within that event type and be taken into a consolidated result entry view for all the selected age/genders. Any results entered this way would reflect in their corresponding events. E.g.: Multi select 9F and 10F and it would show a consolidated view of all the 9F and 10F athletes, now any results entered for 9F athletes will populate in the 9F event and likewise for the 10F athletes.
1.5 Uploading Results
The status indicator provides a clear visual representation of the current state of results, helping the user to know at a glance which event results have been uploaded, in progress, or pending.
- Green dot - indicates results have been uploaded
- Orange dot - indicates the upload of results are in-progress
Uploads only trigger when you exit the results view screen or you click on the Upload button.
We support syncing results across multiple devices but we do not recommend two different people editing the same event at the same time as this may cause sync issues with one uploading overriding the other.
