Assigning bibs

The bib is the athlete’s race number. The desk records finishes by it, so every entry needs one before the start.

Generating bibs for an event

Section titled “Generating bibs for an event”

The generator is on the results screen (at the desk, or on the web through the admin’s Meet button).

  1. On the results screen, click Generate Bibs. The Generate bibs window opens separately.
  2. Under Event, choose the event.
  3. Under Generation rules, set Start from.
  4. Turn on Reuse bibs across events so an athlete who already has a number in another event keeps the same one.
  5. Under Numbers to skip, type the numbers that must not be used, separated by commas (for example, 24, 60, 666).
  6. Check the Preview and the Summary (New, Kept, Reused).
  7. Click Apply bibs.

How numbering works:

  • anyone who already has a bib keeps it;
  • everyone else gets the next free number, in alphabetical order by last name;
  • numbers already in use and those in Numbers to skip are skipped.

In the preview, each row carries a tag: new, kept, reused or manual. Use the pencil (Edit manually) to change a row’s number before applying.

Clearing an event’s bibs

Section titled “Clearing an event’s bibs”

Clear event bibs removes the numbers assigned in that event. It cannot be undone; at the desk, the app makes a local database backup first.
