Choose this option when you are importing just swimmers' names and schools/clubs that will be swimming in your meet. This type of Import contains no entry times – just names, teams, ages, school year, gender, etc. This type of Import is typically used for Dual Meets when the specific entries are not declared until the event begins. The file containing the Rosters can come from a TEAM MANAGER Database or from another MM Database as an HY3 file.
To Import Rosters from a file you have received, follow the steps outlined below:
| 1. | From the Main Menu, choose File. |
| 2. | Choose Import and then Rosters Only |
| 3. | Choose the Drive you are importing from and then the File Name. |
MEET MANAGER will check the File Integrity and then Import the file and add the Teams and Athletes to your Database.
If the roster file is from HY-TEK's TEAM MANAGER or MEET MANAGER, you will have the option to import the competitor number or not:
