Harlow Penguins recently bought the Hy-Tek software for its successful Open meet in September. However some of the constructive criticsm we received was that the entry cards could have been a lot clearer:-
1) From the coaches point of view the cards should have included warm up times - (I am still not sure how to do that)
2) From the swimmers point of view they would have liked to have seen their ranking on the cards (point accepted - this can be done but I choose not to do it - is it really important? Having never swam competitively I have no idea)
3) From the officals point of view they wanted part of the card reserved for them to "place" swimmers - (not sure how to do this)
In summary everybody is comfortable and familar with the common Sportssytem cards and were expecting more of the same. I, however, used what reports were available (not consistent with the Sportssytem cards) and ended up cutting almost 2000 pieces of coloured card with what I thought was the most important information on it. Does anybody have any useful ideas? is there a Hy-Tek user group or web site other than the official one? I have tried calling the UK distributor (Sportstek) but to no avail.
