WTF: Cross Country Scoring

Welcome to the first QuickMeet WTF (What's That Feature): Cross Country Scoring

Cross country scoring has always been one of the most popular features in QuickMeet, and we’ve made it even better since last fall.

Score Meets Your Way

QuickMeet has always made scoring dual and multi-team meets simple. Create a meet with anywhere from 2 to 8 teams, select athletes by name as they finish, and QuickMeet automatically calculates team scores using NFHS scoring rules.

Now you have another option: Bib number scoring.

This isn’t the expensive RFID timing system used at major invitationals. Save yourself some money and use QuickMeet instead. As athletes cross the finish line, simply enter their bib number. QuickMeet instantly associates the bib with the correct athlete and records the finish order. It’s fast, straightforward, and perfect for coaches and volunteers.

Of course, bib numbers need to be assigned before the meet—but QuickMeet makes that process simple too.

Run Practice Meets and Time Trials

Need to time your own team?

QuickMeet now supports single-team meets, making it easy to run practice races, time trials, and fitness assessments throughout the season. Your athletes’ performances are stored right alongside their official meet results.

Ad Hoc Meets

Not every school wants to create an account.

If opposing teams aren’t using QuickMeet, you can upload their rosters and run the meet anyway. No coordination required.

Results That Stay With the Athlete

One of the biggest advantages of QuickMeet is that results aren’t tied only to a meet—they’re tied to the athlete.

Whether it’s a cross country race or a track meet, athlete performances accumulate throughout the season, making it easy to track improvement over time.

We’ll take a deeper dive into athlete data and season-long performance tracking in an upcoming WTF.
