SwimSystem documentation

SwimSystem is the Sports Timing Brasil platform that federations, confederations and clubs use to run swimming and open water competitions — from athlete registration to the official results.

This manual explains, step by step and with the real screens, how to use every part of the system.

What SwimSystem is

One platform, four fronts working on the same data: what the organization sets up in the admin is what the coach enters in the portal, what the desktop app times and what the public sees on the site.

AdminMeets, events, sessions, fees and deadlines. Registration of athletes, coaches, clubs and officials. Payments, officiating boards and reports.PortalsCoaches enter athletes and relays and pay by Pix, bank slip or card. Officials sign up for boards and follow payments.

  • Portuguese and English on every screen, this manual included.
  • Works with Colorado, Swiss Timing, Dolphin and Time Drops timing and scoreboards.
