Competitions: creation step by step
Six cards — details, rules, classes, qualifying, entry fee, admission — and two buttons: draft or publish.
The creation screen is organized by anchors: “Details · Rules · Classes · Qualifying · Entry fee · Admission”.
- General details: the name, the region (required — time zone and calendar filters), the venue with a map pin, the start date, the time, and the duration via “1–3 days” chips. Picking the date pre-fills the fee windows.
- Rules and communication: the rules file (PDF/DOC/DOCX/RTF up to 10 MB) or a link to the official document, plus participant chats — Telegram, WhatsApp, VKontakte, MAX, and others. The links appear on the competition page.
- Classes: nine ready-made classes from “Novice” to “Women”, each with its own color and default number range (for example, Novice 101–199, Pro 1–99, Juniors 701–799). For each class you set the “from/to” numbers, the number of spots, the laps, and the time limit. Ranges must not overlap — the app checks.
- Qualifying (optional): the date, the runs window, and the “Publish reference track” toggle — participants will see the reference lap on the map.
- Entry fee: three price tiers with validity windows (“Early registration”, “Main”, “On race day”), discounts for women and kids with a configurable percentage, the payment method (bank transfer by details or on site), and the registration closing date.
- Admission documents: medical certificate, insurance, license, parental consent — whatever you check becomes mandatory when a participant registers.
At the bottom are two buttons: “Draft” (visible only to you in the calendar; publish later from the page) and “Publish”. Publishing requires the name, region, date, and at least one class.
GPS tracks and checkpoints are set up after creation — right after publishing, the app offers a “Set up tracks” button. That’s the next step: without it there’s no route verification and no timing.
If this competition is already listed in the calendar (we publish listings for free until the organizer arrives), the app will show the matches and offer to confirm your rights to the existing page instead of creating a duplicate — see the article about listings.
