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 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.
