2. On the grey Menu Bar above the team name, click on Entries.

Please use Entries by name for Individual entries and Entry by event for Relays only.


Entries by name

4. Under Entries on the grey Menu Bar, scroll down to Entries by name.

Then, press OK if smaller box appears; it sometimes does not.

5. In the row that starts with a picture of binoculars, beside Entries for team, scroll down once and

click on your team, it should now show in black.

6. In the bottom half of the grey screen, you will now see all events available by gender.

7. Please note that the letter under the Div column represents the age division.

i.e. for Gen F, event #14 is 100m for Youth Girls; for Gen M, event #59 is 1500m for Open Men.

Note that Canada Summer Games Trials events are identified with #T and CSG at the end.

For example, event #59T is Men 1500m CSG.

8. Click on an athlete you wish to enter into one of those events.

9. Find the event. Under Custom Mark not Best Mark, enter the athlete’s seed performance. Please note that for seeds, you must always enter to the 100th of a second, or the millimetre.

For example, for the 400m, if you wish to enter a time of 1:05.42 just type 10542 then press Enter.

For a jump of 5.24m, just type 524, then press Enter.

Do not enter the punctuation marks.

If you do not have a seed performance, just check the box under Entered.

repeat Step E-9.
