Creating a Contest

From the dashboard, choose New Contest.

1. Contest type — choose Area or Division. This decides who runs it and which checklist template it starts from.
2. Area or Division — pick the specific area or division. Only the ones you have access to are listed.
3. Season label — a short label like Fall 2026.
4. Contest date and time, and timezone.

Select Create contest. The contest starts in Draft status with:

• A copy of the checklist template that's currently active for that contest type.
• The standard set of briefings, ready to schedule.

Task due dates are calculated from the contest date, so double-check it before creating — changing it later shifts every task that hasn't been completed yet.
