Scenario:

You want to time many students over 100m and use those times to seed them as competitors in both the A and B events.

 

Set up the carnival first

Ensure you have a carnival set up with a program of events that includes your trial events.  You require a program even if you are not actually running the carnival.

 

The event order does not matter except that if you are running A and B (or C) events then A events must precede B or B events must precede A.  The priority of events must be consistent through the program.

 

For display convenience in this example all 100m events have been grouped at the start of the program.
