The Matching tab lets you control how Competitors are assigned to Judges and when those assignments are made.
Choose How Competitors Are Assigned
You can choose from several matching methods:
By Tag and by Session – Assign Competitors based on both their Tags and Sessions.
By Tag – Assign Competitors based on their Tags.
By Session – Assign Competitors based on their Sessions.
Randomly – Assign Competitors randomly.
All Competitors to all Judges – Give every Judge all Competitors.
Manually – Assign Competitors to Judges yourself.
Choose When Assignments Are Made
You can decide when Competitor assignments happen:
When each Judge checks in
RocketJudge automatically assigns Competitors when each Judge checks in
Before the Event
Pre-assign Competitors before the event. Assignments can be made manually or automatically from the Judges tab.
Set Competitors Per Judge
Enter the number of Competitors that each Judge should receive.
Tag Matching Strictness
When using Tags for matching, you can enable Strict Matching.
With Strict Matching enabled, Competitors are assigned to Judges only when they have at least one overlapping Tag.
Wildcards
Use Wildcards to assign a specified number of Competitors to a Judge regardless of their Tags.
This can be useful when there are not enough Judges with matching Tags.
