Newcastle Cross Country uses digital recording systems

Each registered participant will received a ATHLETE REGISTRATION CARD (ARC) which is similar in size to a credit card.
The bar code on this card holds your name and registration number information.  Retain this card to use from year to year

If you are new and have registered online
Running for the first time this year collect your ARC from the registration desk.  Have it scanned or scan it yourself prior to the run commencing

If you have run with us already in past seasons and have registered online for this season
Please check your handicap start time, or the grade you will be running in and write it on the back of your hand.
Have your ARC Scanned or scan it yourself before the run
 

At the completion of the run

On completion of your run you will be issued with a finish card. The bar code on this finish card holds your placing number only.

Take both cards to the registration table, place them on the table barcode side up, where they will be scanned.  You will be asked whether you completed in the Short, Medium or Long run.  Leave the finish card on the table and take your Athlete Registration Card with you for use for following runs.

If you are registering 'cash on the day' just before the run starts
On completion of your run you will be issued with a finish card.  The bar code on this finish card holds your placing number only. Take this card to the registration table, request your new Athlete Registration Card. Both of these cards will be scanned.  Leave the finish card on the table and take your Athlete Registration card with you for use for following runs.

Lost your Athlete Registration Card then order another online
No worries, we can give you another one on the day.  Cost of replacement card is $2

Left your Athlete Registration Card at home
No worries, we can take your details for ONE run only.
Leave it at home a second time during the season, and we will have no record of your run and you will not be given a result.

Forget to hand in your finish card
No worries, we will have no record of your run and you will not be given a result until you give us back our finish card
