How fast is the payment registered?

If you pay before 3pm on a banking day, they payment is on our account after 4pm the following banking day. If you pay after 4pm, it takes two banking days. We try to process the payment the same night, but sometimes it takes another day. To be certain your payment reaches us on time make sure to pay at least two banking days before the competition. After we have processed your payment you will recieve a checkin email.

Can I buy my way to the semi/finals?

No. You must qualify during the current season or have placed on spot 1-3 last season for a wildcard.

Can I participate without a boat?

No. Boat is required.

Can I change our team lineup at any time?

No. If you want to change the team lineup, it must be done before the first qualifier you have signed up to. After that our system does not allow editing of the team.

Can I change team lineup unlimited times?

We allow one (1) change per team.

Can I add a participant to a two-participant team?

Yes, as long as its done at the latest two days before your first qualifier.

Can I move to another team before a qualifier?

Yes, your team has not participated yet, and it is more than two working days until your next qualifier. Note that if you move from a two-participant team, the last participant is not allowed to compete on their own once you have been moved.

Can I change to another team for the semi/finals?

No. Only team lineups that have qualified can participate in the semi/finals. It is not allowed to puzzle together a team from stray participants regardless if they have qualified in other teams.

Do I have to get a Sportfiskarna membership to participate?

Yes, during the checkin process a valid membership ID must be entered for each participant.

What are the technical requirements for the Livereporting webapp?

We have tested it on both Android/Chrome and iOS/Safari. Additionally you will need a mobile data plan and GPS activated for the browser.

Can I test the Livereporting ahead of time?

Yes, when your payment has been registered a Livereporting link is emailed to you. There you can explode the webapp and send test-reports.

What photos should I use to test the Livereporting?

There is a link to three test photos at the bottom of the Help page in the Livereporting.

Do I always have to hand in both a Result report and mobile phone(s)?

No, this is only required if the Livereporting has experienced technical difficulties. (Webapp wont send photos etc)

When do I need to be on location on a competition day?

7:40am. That's when we start the mandatory morning meeting and row call for ALL participants. By that time you must have launched your boat and have all your equipment ready to avoid a one hour delayed start for your team.

When do I need to send in a catch and/or check-in?

Before 8:00am on competition day to avoid a long delay. Be smart, do it as early as possible once you recieve your Livereporting and check-in link.
