Run a squad or training programme: applications instead of entries, sessions on the noticeboard, and no start-line tools.
A squad or training programme has no start line, so it does not need stations, tallying or results. Tick This is a squad or training programme, not a race when you create the event, or Squad or training programme under Kind of event in Settings.
Most squads run all season: tick Runs until I close it so nothing about the squad is deleted while it is still going.
