Counted from the Baan results database, updated twice a day.

From results sheet to entry list in one evening.

  1. Link your school

    Type your school’s name. Baan finds it in the national results and brings in the last twelve months of meets.

  2. Check the names

    One athlete, three spellings, three meets. Baan puts them together and asks you only about the ones it is unsure of.

  3. Set the meet rules

    Items, age groups, entries per item, placings or APE points. Take them from last year’s results or tap them in.

  4. Pick and swap

    Baan picks the squad that scores the most against up to 20 rival schools. Change anyone and see what it costs.

  5. Look back

    After the meet, see whether the best team went and which changes would have scored more.

Built around how school athletics really runs.
