Enter Results

The ENTER RESULTS group allows entry of all event results. Other results such as previous round results, athlete of the match and match comments are available by selecting this group. The recommendation with regard to entering results or information in this group is that as many completed team declarations and any previous round results should be set/checked before any event results are entered. This is to ensure the cumulative match positions and points are correct before the first event and therefore correct at the end of the match.

Previous Round

The item allows event and league points to be recorded for all the teams in all rounds in a division. These points are then added, at the end of the match, to the current points totals to give cumulative points and league standings. Additions or subtractions of points for officials etc. at previous round(s) should also be included.

If cumulative league points/positions are required, the previous round points should be set before the first event result of the second or subsequent round(s) is entered. This allows the points and standings to be viewed, in the Display, Match Positions, before the match starts and ensures the cumulative points and positions will be available to be printed or displayed at the end of the match.

In all cases the following applies:

  1. The club abbreviations used in the current match should be the same as previous round(s).
  2. Clubs names and abbreviation should be entered against the team numbers or letter shown.
  3. All points fields must be completed, using 0's if necessary, for the points to be saved.
When the Previous Round item is selected the program will ask if a search for match files related to the current match teams should be made and the points automatically load. The suggested answer will be displayed however, this may not truly represent the official results because manual changes may have been made which are not part of any recorded result.


Answering yes will search for previous round match files and if found will always replace any points in any existing division points file. Where points information is missing the points for that round will be set to 0 and have to be set by selecting the relevant team. Answering no means all points will initially show 0 and all teams for all rounds must have previous round points entered manually. For large divisions, 9, 16 and 25 teams, an additional question will be asked. It is left to the user to choose which answer to give.


Answering Yes will allow the opportunity to enter all the other team names in the division. The current match teams will be filled automatically, the other teams can be left blank, partially or fully filled.



This item will not be available for knockout programs, promotion matches or first round matches of 4-8 team division.
