Setting up the meet

An open water meet is built in the web admin, under Open Water › Meets. Each row of the list has three shortcuts: Events, Entries and Meet (opens the results screen on the web, in a new tab), plus edit, duplicate and delete.

The recommended order is: general data → team mode → events → age groups for each event → starts (waves) → points tables → fees and lots.

Note

Most open water setup screens are shown only in Portuguese. This manual keeps the on-screen Portuguese labels in bold and explains them in English.
