Special Instructions for the Monthly Virtual Matches

In general, after downloading the match, run it like any other Orion match. There are a few special instructions necessary to take advantage of state rankings and dynamic team generation.

Enter in the two letter state code (e.g. "VA" or "CA") for each competitor or team under the 'State' column. This is needed to correctly list the athlete or team by their state in the rankings.

Create only a single team per club. Assign all club members to that team. Orion will automatically create dynamic-teams based on individual performance.

Link athletes to their Scopos account, so their scores get added to their Score History.
