Seeding and ReseedingIn order to use your Session timelines accurately, you need to seed at least once (heat/ lane placement in each event)Prelim/ Final events Seeding of finals depend on

results from prelims

Rule of Thumb: Seed and reseed as often as you

need to UNTIL you print all the heat sheets/ program and take it to the printers

Programs for sale need to be as accurate as possible

DON’T RESEED or IMPORT any files after printing

Don’t print your relay cards until after you print your programs/ heat sheets


27
