Competitions
From Maxithlon
The Events are obviously the central point of the whole activity of your club. In an event your athletes can learn, they can win or lose, and thereby your club can also add some penny to its own funds. A correct management of the annual calendar, and therefore of the participations of your athletes, it is the only base that you have for getting valid results to individual or social level.
There are official and non-official events, and they are:
- National League
- Regional Championship
- National Championship
- Continental Games
- World Games
- Olympic Games
- Meetings
You can also create your own event, and you can use various parameters that will allow you to create an event exactly like you want. You must be careful to balance well the various organizational parameters so that other teams would like to participate. You can organize at the most one meeting for Young and Master categories and two for the Senior ones.
Other events will be automatically organized at regional and national level. The organizer will be chosen at the beginning of the season, depending on the owners arena and the ranking of the owner's club in the national or regional ranking. An arena with a high ranking has a higher probability to be selected compared with another with a lower ranking.
All the official events are organized by MFTF (Maxithlon Federation of Track and Field) and therefore they won't have organizational costs for the user that host it, and there aren't costs for enrolling athletes. Meetings organized by the clubs can have variable costs of organization depending on the created event, and the cost for the registration of athlete chosen by the organizer.
It's possible to enroll the athletes to a competition up to half an hour before it begins, i.e. half an hour before the first event starts.
At each completed event every athlete will have his or her result, that can be the distance or the time achieved in the competition. In case he (or she) did not finished the competition, the reason for not getting a mark is is given as specified in Results.

Obviously your competition will have a certain public at the arena to enjoy some healthy athletics. Crowded events, with great athletes and great fans that are organized by a club with a lot of fans in beautiful days will be surely get more attention than others. The maximum number of spectators that the arena can entertain is given by the capacity.
