Guide Setup Teams
Setting up Teams is done by pushing the Maintain Teams button. You are presented with an empty _Maintain Team_s dialog. To add a new team push the Add Team button. The new dialog allows you to enter a Code for the team (Mansfield State High could be shortened to MSH), the full name of the team, and the number of competitors in the team (this is only required if you need to calculate percentile scores). The bottom of the dialog show what extra points have been allocated to the team. This option might be used to allocate points for the quality of team "war-cry" etc.
Lastly you can allocate default lanes for team competitors. Often a team will run in set lanes (team 1 may be allocated lanes 1 and 5, team 2 may be allocated lanes 2 and 6 and so on). To do this push the Allocate Default Lanes button. You are presented with a dialog that allows you to set the default lanes for all teams. For each lane select the team who should be allocated this lane by default. This feature is used when adding competitors to events. When you add a competitor to an event the Sports Administrator will look to see if there is a default lane for that team and then place the competitor in the appropriate lane. (Note that this can be done manually).
Push the OK button (on the Allocate Lanes dialog) and the OK button (on the Add Team dialog). Continue to add the required teams. When you are finished push the Close button.
