ARMS is very flexible when it comes to how you manage the individual sport rosters and their team calendars in ARMS. If your university has a single coaching staff overseeing multiple sports such as Women's/Men's Track & Field, please consider your roster management options below. 

Option 1 (Recommended) 

Coach's View

Create 2 sports:

  • Track & Field

  • Cross Country

These are the only sports the coaching staff will see.  They can manage all of their student-athletes & recruits, with the ability to filter on gender/event/etc., in one database. 

All CARA activities will be saved to 1 playing season calendar for the corresponding sport, which allow the coaches to manage just 1 calendar. 

Compliance View

Visible Sports:

  • Cross Country 

  • Track & Field 

  • Men's Cross Country 

  • Men's Indoor Track

  • Men's Outdoor Track

  • Women's Cross Country

  • Women's Indoor Track

  • Women's Outdoor Track

Compliance will manage the roster status of athletes on all applicable sport rosters, including the 2 "generic" rosters (i.e. the rosters the coaches are using). 

Compliance will manually update the athlete participation records (i.e. did they compete?) at the end of the season on the gender specific rosters for Squad List and Eligibility reporting. 

Option 2

Coach's View 

  • Men's Cross Country

  • Men's Indoor Track

  • Men's Outdoor Track

  • Women's Cross Country

  • Women's Indoor Track

  •  Women's Outdoor Track

Coaches will manage their rosters on all of the individual sport views in ARMS. Each sport will require that the coaching staff create that sport's team events on each individual calendar. The staff can decide how they would like to manage their recruit database on any one (or more) of the available sports. 

Compliance View

  • Men's Cross Country

  • Men's Indoor Track

  • Men's Outdoor Track

  • Women's Cross Country

  • Women's Indoor Track

  •  Women's Outdoor Track

Compliance will manage the roster status of athletes on all applicable sport rosters. The student-athlete's participation (i.e. did they compete) will update automatically based on their associated competition activity on the playing & practice calendar.
