Race Control - How To Use.

Introduction

RaceHub Race Control is designed around the real workflows of race officers and organising authorities:

• Create races
  Set up races quickly with race names, dates, and event details.

• Edit races at any time
  Make changes before, during, or after an event as conditions or schedules evolve.

• Manage race status
  Easily change race states (e.g. upcoming, live, completed) from a single dashboard.

• Generate and manage race tokens
  Each race automatically produces a unique race token that competitors enter into SailPro to join that race.

• Race Trim
  Trim races to remove non-race data, such as boats sailing to or from the course, or to split a full day of tracking into individual races.

• Export race lists to Excel
  Download a full list of races as an Excel spreadsheet, making it easy to:

  • Insert race details into Sailing Instructions (SI)

  • Share schedules with competitors

  • Archive event information for club records
    

Race Control works within a normal PC browser so it provides an easier way for Race Committees to create and manage their races

Known Issues
