Adding athletes

Some RDS regattas require athlete information to be entered. Athletes can then be added into crews as entries are being made.

Under the My club: option, Club Administrators should have three options regarding athletes.

List athletes is a list of the athletes in your club. It gives you an edit link if you should need to alter the name, date of birth, sex of an athlete.

Edit athletes allows you to edit a number of details about your athletes at once. You can indicate their grade, which is required for the LVISSAA regattas, then click Save Grade information. You can also indicate which athletes are novice. Click on the checkbox in the Select column, then click the button titled Set/remove selected athletes as novice, then confirm at the next dialog box. If you have any athletes listed who are no longer at your club, select them and then click the button labelled Remove selected athletes from club.

Add athletes allows you to add athletes (first name, last name, date of birth, sex are the minimum fields that you should enter). Click on the checkbox in the Novice column if the athlete is a novice. Press Add.

If the athlete you have entered is already in the system (because they have rowed at a previous regatta), the page will allow you to choose the existing entry in the system. Please choose the existing data record, as we may get confused if we have more than one record for a particular person.

Athlete information (name, date of birth, sex, RCA number, email address) can be imported from the RCA membership site. Go to Importing athletes.
