Technical delegate

As a technical delegate, you prepare a specific event for race day. You configure races, assign officials and their roles, set up course maps, and make sure everything is ready before the start.

You set up the event and its races on the web at app.raceranger.com. In the app you can manage the team, approve people, and follow the race on the go.

In this section

• Set up a race start to finish — the quick version.
• Event setup — the event's details, location, documents, and features.
• Race configuration — creating races, setting rules, and configuring penalties.
• Managing officials — adding, inviting, and approving people, and giving them their roles.

5. Add your officials and give them their roles for each race.
6. Run through the race-day checklist.
7. Start the race — Activate race mode — when ready.
