Why isn't a competition on canoeslalomentries?

Post by Dee » Mon Mar 22, 2021 11:52 am

I get asked this question frequently.

For a competition to be visible on canoeslalomentries ...
  • The organiser needs to have fully completed and submitted their yearbook data (a few still outstanding!)
  • I need to initiate the competition on canoeslalomentries
  • The organiser needs to check and publish their competition
The vast majority of "invisible" competitions are due to organisers not publishing.
So please chase the organiser, not me!


The reason I do not publish is I need the organiser to check the details just in case; although the vast majority will be as expected they may want to change contact email (GDPR) and sometimes have other queries. I can't tell you why some organisers just don't publish - it's a mystery to me!

I do also get asked about "open for entry dates" - the system sets these to a default based on competition date (this year to a few weeks beforehand) but organisers can and do change them.
