New Race Management Application on the horizon - Calling Race Officers and Racers

Published 16:31 on 3 Feb 2024

Calling ALL SCSC dinghy racers, First Race Officers and Second Race Officers!

South Cerney Sailing Club has great talent within the Club and over the past months a new race management software application is being developed which will be easier to use and easier to maintain, which is particularly important for the volunteers doing Results Secretary duties.

Lots more information will be made available as we get closer to a rollout date, but we wanted to make you aware of this change well before it happens.

Key points to note are:

• This new application is easy to use and has a modern user interface. It has been designed to operate in a very similar way to our current application.
• When the time comes ...

• • All racers will need to create/ update their profile which will record their boats. A sailor who switches between multiple sails with the same hull will need to create a record for every permutation.
  • Signing-on will be able to be done in the Clubhouse prior to a race or from anywhere with an internet connection via the application. The ability for a race officer to delve into the system and find a helm/ crew based upon a sail number will not exist though; so signing on for a race will be important.
  • We hope to start using this application from Easter 2024. We realise there will be some inevitable disruption and apologise in advance for the vexation associated with the change.

Please get in touch with Blair at ViceCommodore@scsailing.org.uk if any you have any questions or observations and we'll share more information as plans firm up.
