 Sign up to Southampton Common - Free Activity
Please pre-enter if you can as that will help us to test importing entries into SI Timing. You can also reserve a printed map by pre-entering.

Members of SOC are welcome to assist at Download

We will be running two types of download so there are plenty of opportunities to help and to get to know both SI Timing and SI-Droid. 

What is SI Timing? This is the Windows software that we will be using for some Level D and all Level C and above.

What is SI-Droid? It's an Android phone or tablet app that can be used for download and results for activities and low-key events. 

We have all the kit we need to run download on both systems. If you're interested in helping on Saturday, please let Pete know: peterjdavis [at] gmail.com (peterjdavis[at]gmail[dot]com)
