TeamBuilder now supports individual-based sporting events, such as Athletics and Swimming.
Individual participants will be registered to a "team of athletes" competing at an event, and will then complete an individual registration form to nominate the individual events they would like to register to at the event.

Set Individual Event Grades
1. Login to your site, go to your Dashboard then click the TeamBuilder tile.
2. Against the individual sport registration form e.g. Athletics Registration click the Grade Attributes setting cog.
3. Click + Add Grade to add events for the sport, e.g. Senior Boys' 100m Relay or Senior Girls' 100m Freestyle. These grades will appear in the grade attributes list once saved.
4. In column beside the appropriate grade, tick the Individual Event checkbox to identify the grade as an grade that is for an individual event.
Please note that grade eligibility can be set against grades set up as individual events as well as team grades. If grade eligibility has been set against an individual event, individuals will be unable to enter the grade if they do not meet eligibility requirements.
For example, the Senior Girls' 100m Freestyle grade could have eligibility requirements set such as Gender = Female, Age between 15 and 18 years old. An individual who is 14 years old, or identifies as a male wants to enter the freestyle event, they will be unable to enter this specific Senior Girls' 100m Freestyle grade/event.
Ensure that you have created a grade for the event team to be entered into e.g. Term 1 Athletics.
If the event offers team events as well as individual events (e.g. Relay's), ensure you have created the grade or grades for the relay team or teams to be entered into. E.g. Girls' U18 4 x 50m relay.
For example:
- A grade will need to be created for each competition and each relay event
- Swimming Champs Competition
- Swimming Champs – Senior Boys 100m relay
- Swimming Champs – Senior Girls 100m relay
- Each event will also be created as a grade and marked as an Individual Event
- Freestyle 100m Boys Senior
- Freestyle 100m Girls Senior
Once grades and grade eligibility (if required) have been set up, create a competition in SKED for your Individual Event. This will create a Team Entry form for your competition.
Player Registration Event and Qualifier Questions
For a player to be entered into an event the Event question needs to be added to the player registration form. Multiple event questions can be added to allow a player to be entered into multiple events.
- Event questions
- Time fields
- Height/Distance fields
1. To add Event & Qualifier Questions to the Player Registration form first go the Dashboard then to the Online Registrations tile.
2. Locate the Player Registration form e.g. Swimming Registration and click the Edit Pencil to edit the form.
3. Click + Add New Section and add the event and or qualifier questions.
Repeat the process of adding a section and questions for additional events if required. For example and Athletics competition might have 3 events for individuals to enter, therefore 3 new sections would need to be added with the appropriate questions added.
The Individual Event field is linked to the grades/events that have been set up and have Individual ticked on against the Team Entry form in TeamBuilder.
When an individual registers through their club or school, they will be required to complete the Player Registration form when placed into a team. This can be completed by the club or school administrator.
The person completing the form will select from the drop-down populated via the grades/events set up in TeamBuilder.
For example, an Athletics competition may have individual events for Discus, Shotput, Hammer Throw, 100m Sprint. The person completing the player registration form will need to select which event the player is participating in for Event 1, Event 2 and Event 3.
