Creating Start Lists

or	During Competition -> Draw Start Order
or	Competition Dashboard -> Draw Start Order
or	PanelRecorder Dashboard -> Draw Start Order

A unique feature of ScoreManager is that it does not require the competition organiser to draw the starting order for each grade separately. The starting order of athletes to be drawn for

•all of the grades in the competition at once e.g. for the qualifying rounds before the competition commences

•all of the grades in a selected discipline

•multiple grades in a selected discipline

•each grade separately

Once the starting order has been drawn for a grade, ScoreManager will create a start list of the grade showing the athletes in the order in which they have been drawn.

The figure below shows the parts of the screen used to draw the start order with subsequent figures showing examples of how to draw the start order for grades in the ways listed above.
