Entries

Warn if times are out of range: This is a very useful feature that traps keying errors.  If you have this option checked, MEET MANAGER will warn you if you key in a "silly" entry time, i.e. 3:44.56 for a 50 Free.

Minimum age for Open Events: Sometimes Open events have a minimum age such as 12 and by putting in an age here,   the eligible athletes list in the Seeding Preview and in Relay Names will exclude those under age. This is also used by the Exceptions Report to give you a list of all entries that are under this minimum age for each Open event.  However, note that you will NOT be warned when trying to enter someone under age into an Open event.

Meet Eligibility for Entries: Enter the earliest date for which entry qualifying times can be attained. If there is no date, leave the date at the default of 1 Jan 1970. This date is only used when exporting meet events to TEAM MANAGER.

 

Entry Limits

Maximum entries per athlete including relays: Customize your meet entry limits (if any) for Individual and Relay events. Enter the total maximum entries allowed per athlete for the entire meet including relays.

Exclude No Time (NT) Entries when importing entries: This setting is also exported in the Meet Events to TM file so that TM is aware of the option.

Maximum individual entries per athlete: Enter the total maximum number of individual entries allowed per athlete for the entire meet.

Maximum relay entries per athlete: Enter the total maximum number of relays allowed per athlete for the entire meet. Note that Swim-off events will not be counted.

Warn if entry limits exceeded: Click on the check box and MM will give you a warning when Entry limits are exceeded and give you an opportunity to override the limit.

Count Relay Alternates (5-8): This determines whether being a relay alternate counts when computing the number of relay entries an athlete is in for the Max entries warning.

Count Time Trial Events: This determines whether Time Trial Event entries count when computing the number of entries an athlete is in for the Max entries warning.
