Replace , with ; in the CSV file
Update date format to yyyy-mm-dd
After selecting 'Import timetable / startlist' remember to change event code to correct number in the URL
Once the Start List has been completed, you can generate a print out using the following URL with the last number changed to the regatta number. Make sure that the PDF is output to A4 not US A4.

Once signed off, check the following: - races have correct categorization, e.g. National Championship, Selection, Paddle-Ability etc - races have correct distances set, e.g. 5000 > 500 and 2000 > 200
Paddlers with disabilities or special needs
We occasionally receive requests for paddlers to race in specific lanes, e.g. for hearing or sight impairment, or anxiety. We endeavour to support these requests if they are known about prior to timetabling and the preparation of the Start Lists.
