Create an event

From Events → New Event you can either fill the classic event form directly, or use the setup wizard which walks through the same fields step by step and can also import an existing ORC entry list.

The event form

Fields you'll be asked for:

• Name, dates, timezone — the event's public identity and the timezone every start time is entered in.
• Visibility — public, unlisted, private or draft. Draft events are not shown publicly and can be resumed later.
• Type — regatta / series, which affects whether an overall series ranking is calculated.
• Co-hosts — other clubs that can also manage this event (they get the same event-level access you do).

Steps

1. Open Events, click New Event.
2. Fill the required fields (name, dates, timezone, visibility).
3. Save. You land on the event's detail page, where every other setup step (divisions, rating, races, …) lives in its own tab.
4. To change these fields later, use Edit on the event detail page — the same form reopens.
