Why RacerBase
Most club races are run by volunteers with an entry export, a stack of paper and a long evening ahead. RacerBase takes the admin out of race day.
Features
RacerBase doesn't sell tickets or take entry fees. It picks up where your ticketing platform stops and handles the racing.
Upload the CSV or Excel export from the ticketing site you already use. Map the columns once and reuse the template for every event.
Give racers a permanent number they keep all season and beyond, or allocate fresh bib numbers for each event. Retired numbers can be recycled automatically.
Built for hand timing. Capture finish order and times at the line on a phone or laptop. No timing chips or mats needed.
Still using paper? Photograph the finish sheet. RacerBase reads the racer numbers and times, highlights anything uncertain, and you confirm before anything is published.
Overall, gender, age-category and category-by-gender positions are calculated automatically. Add time adjustments or handicaps, choose a points system and run a season-long series leaderboard.
Results, standings and racer profiles on a fast, mobile-friendly page with your club's name, logo and colours. Share one link and racers can look up their own times.
How it works
Add your club or event, your series and races, age categories and points system. Call your competitors racers, swimmers, runners or paddlers.
When entries close, upload the export from your ticketing platform. Review the flagged rows, confirm, and print your start lists and number sheets.
Record finishes on the day or photograph the finish sheet. Check the times, press publish, and results and standings go live for everyone.
Who it's for
Monthly swims, weekly time trials, summer race series. Keep racers on the same number all season and let the standings update themselves after every event.
Fun runs, charity swims, paddle races and school events. Import entries, allocate numbers, time the finish and share results the same day.
No technical skills needed. Clear checks catch mistakes before they're published, so the results team gets to go home on time.
Built at the water's edge
RacerBase began as the results system for a monthly open-water swim league, handling hundreds of entries per event, handwritten finish sheets and a season-long points race. Now we're opening it up to clubs and event organisers in every timed sport.

FAQ
RacerBase is online software for clubs, leagues and event organisers to manage racer numbers, import entries, record finish times and publish results and series standings. It works for any sport where a competitor wears a number and is timed.
Any timed sport with numbered competitors: open-water and pool swimming, road and trail running, parkrun-style time trials, paddling, SUP, kayaking, cycling, triathlon and multisport. You can call your competitors swimmers, runners or paddlers instead of racers.
No. Keep selling entries on the ticketing platform you already use. After entries close, upload its export file to RacerBase and it matches every entry to a racer and number.
Yes. Each organisation chooses permanent numbers, which a racer keeps for every event and which can be recycled later, or fresh numbers for each event.
No. RacerBase is built for clubs and events that time by hand. Record finishes at the line, or photograph a paper finish sheet and let RacerBase read the numbers and times for you to check.
Every club starts with a 30-day free trial, with no card needed. After that it's one yearly price per club or event organiser: R1,500 a year in South Africa, or about US$99 a year elsewhere (charged as R1,800, with your card showing dollars). Pay by card through PayFast and it renews automatically each year. Unlimited racers, events and team members are included. See pricing.
