Event Results Management

Overview

Horsify provides comprehensive event results management, allowing organisers to enter results, manage running orders, and publish competitor standings. The system supports multiple competition formats and calculates placings for you.

Who Uses This

• Organisers: Enter and manage event results
• Riders: View results and competition standings
• Admins: Oversee results across all events

Key Features

• Results Entry: Manual entry and spreadsheet import
• Running Orders: Manage competition schedules
• Automatic Placings: Placings calculated for score-, faults- and time-based classes
• Class Results: Individual class standings, grouped into divisions
• Dressage Scoring: A dedicated movement-by-movement judge scoring flow, including offline tablet scoring
• Scoring Sheets: Download a fillable spreadsheet, record scores offline, then import it back
• Rider Notifications: Riders are notified when results are published

How to Use

Entering Results

1. Open your event and choose the Results tile
2. Pick the division tab, then click Add Result
3. Enter results for each competitor:
   • Placing/score
   • Time (if applicable)
   • Faults (if applicable)
   • Notes
4. Save results

Entering and editing results is open to your organisation's admins, staff with Events access at Manage, and that event's Event team (see Staff Access).

Working from a Scoring Sheet

If you're recording scores on paper or in a spreadsheet on the day:

1. Click Scoring sheet on the Results page to download a fillable scoring sheet. It comes out pre-filled with your entrants.
2. Record the day's scores in it.
3. Click Import results and follow the import wizard, which lets you review the matches before anything is saved.

If an import goes wrong, click Delete provisional and start again; finalised results are left untouched.

Auto-Place a Class

For a class that's scored rather than placed by hand, Auto-place works out the placings from the scores for you. Classes where the judge assigns positions directly are left alone, and dressage classes don't need it because they are placed from the judges' score sheets.

Finalising

Finalise all marks every provisional result as final in one go: the division you have open, or the whole event when you're on the overall view. Finalised results can't be deleted.

Managing Running Orders

1. Open your event and choose the Scheduling tile
2. Under Configure & Generate, set your rings, timing and options, then generate the schedule
3. In Preview & Adjust, drag riders (or use the ↑ ↓ buttons) to fine-tune the order, then Save Changes
4. Click Publish to Riders so the running order appears for entered riders

Generating and changing a running order is open to your organisation's admins, staff with Events access at Manage, and that event's Event team. Staff with Events access at View can see it but not change it.

Result Calculation

Scoring Types

Each competition class has a scoring type, which decides how placings are worked out. Horsify sets it from the class's discipline and it can't be changed: there's no scoring-type control on the class. If a class is being placed the wrong way round, the discipline on the class is what to correct.

Dressage is highest score wins, not lowest. The percentage a rider earns is their score, and the highest percentage takes the class.

Editing a dressage ride the judges scored in Horsify

Once a judge has submitted a ride's score sheet, the sheet is the record, and the ride's percentage and placing come from it.

• Ticking Eliminated, Retired or Scratched, or setting the status to Disqualified, takes the ride out of the placings, and everyone below it moves up straight away. Undoing it puts them back.
• The percentage can't be changed here. Reopen the sheet in Dressage scoring, correct the marks and submit it again. The same goes for an elimination the judge's sheet records (three errors of course).
• The result can't be deleted while its sheets are submitted. Tick Scratched to take the ride out of the placings, or reopen and delete its sheets in Dressage scoring first.

A ride judged on paper, whose sheet in Horsify was never submitted, is edited like any other result: what you type is what's shown.

Dressage rings with more than one judge

A ring can have a judging panel (for example judges at C and E), set under Rings & Judges on the event's Scheduling page. Each judge scores every ride in that ring on a sheet of their own, and the ride's result is the average of their sheets.

• A ride has no score or placing until every judge on its panel has submitted. Riders and the public see Awaiting judges on the results page and in My Results, without any judge being named.
• On your own results page, a note lists each ride still waiting, says which judge it's waiting on, and links to that judge's sheet. A sheet made by mistake can be deleted on Dressage scoring.

Classes placed by the judge can't be auto-placed. That's the point of them.

Getting Results In and Out

Dressage results can be exported; other results can't. On the event's Dressage scoring page, Export CSV downloads a spreadsheet of every submitted score sheet: one row per judge's sheet, with the placing, test, rider, horse, competitor number, judge, marks, percentage, errors of course, technical faults and whether the ride was eliminated or scratched. Sheets still in draft are left out, and a ride still waiting on a panel judge has no placing in it yet. For any other discipline there is no button that downloads finished results as a PDF or a spreadsheet, for organisers or for riders. To keep a copy or hand results to a sponsor, use your browser's own Print command on the results page and save it as a PDF.

What the Scoring sheet button on the results page does give you is the opposite direction: a fillable scoring sheet. It's a spreadsheet built from your event's entries (one row per rider, horse and division, with blank score columns) so a scorer can fill it in away from the screen and you can import it straight back with Import results. It contains no results; it's a blank form.

Riders see their own results in My Results and on the event's public results page.

Publishing Results

Results move through Pending → Provisional → Final.

You choose who sees provisional scores, per event, with the event's provisional results setting:

• Riders (the default): a rider sees their own provisional result under My Results; the public results page stays finalised-only.
• Organisers only: riders and the public see nothing until you finalise. Use this when scores shouldn't be known before the presentation.
• Public: provisional results appear on the public results page as they're judged, badged as provisional, so scores live-update for riders and spectators.

Whichever you choose, finalising a class publishes it. The setting can be changed by admins, staff with Events access at Manage, and the event's Event team.

When Riders Are Told

• A rider is told about a result once, ever. If your event announces provisional scores publicly, riders hear then, and finalising that same result sends nothing further. If you keep provisional scores private, they hear when you finalise.
• Notifications go to the app first. A rider with the app installed gets a push notification. Riders with no app get a text instead, if your organisation has results SMS switched on (texts count towards your monthly SMS allowance).
• A rider's results for one event are collapsed into a single message, so finalising someone's whole day is one notification rather than three.
• Results notifications ignore quiet hours deliberately: a score is news at 9pm and stale at 7am.

Integration with Other Features

Season leaderboard

Finalised results automatically feed your organisation's season leaderboard, which builds standings across your events for the year with no extra setup.

Event series

A series leaderboard is not rebuilt automatically. Standings are built from finalised results that carry Series Points, and only when someone who manages the series clicks Recalculate standings on it. Finalise the results, then recalculate. See Event Series & Leaderboards and Event Series & Championships.
