Participant Management
Organize Your Roster Once, Use It All Year
Build your participant roster once and use it all year. Add names, grades, and custom groups — organized exactly the way your school works. Assign reusable RFID chips by scanning a QR code, and reassign them as students join or leave. When the year turns over, clear out outgoing students, add your new roster, and you're back up and running.
Import existing rosters in bulk via CSV upload
Reassign chips between participants anytime
Link school or internal IDs to each participant
Participant data carries over across all events automatically
Event Results
Comprehensive Results, Zero Data Entry
Every event automatically produces a complete results dashboard — no clipboards, no manual entry, no cleanup afterward. The moment a participant crosses the finish line, their result is captured, ranked, and displayed automatically. Sortable leaderboards show you exactly where every student stands, lap-by-lap breakdowns give you a full picture of their performance, and a growing record of data across every event means you always have the history you need — organized, accurate, and yours to keep.
Live scoreboard updates instantly as participants finish — shareable during any event
Filter results by grade, group, or custom category
Export results to CSV or spreadsheet after every event
Generate detailed PDF reports to share with faculty, parents, or students
Long-Term Analytics
Track Progress, Measure Growth
Every student builds a performance record from day one. Track improvement over time, compare pace and consistency across events, and see how each student ranks among their peers. Achievements are automatically unlocked as students hit personal milestones — a built-in engagement tool that keeps students motivated and invested in their own progress.
For coaches and teachers, the dashboard tells the bigger story. Spot students who are improving, identify those who may need extra support, and track fitness trends across your entire program. And it builds — month by month, season by season, year by year — into a history no clipboard could ever keep.
Year-Round Value
Built to Use All Year — Not Once and Forgotten
JagTrax is one annual license per participant — so once a student is on your roster, you can count their laps as often as you like all year, at no extra cost per event. It's designed to live inside your program, not a closet: run it for regular PE classes, running and cross country clubs, mile tests, field days, and every fun run or jog-a-thon, building a full year of student running trends and analytics. Use it for more than one event and it quickly pays for itself — unlike rental or per-event systems built to be used once and packed away.

Part of your regular program

Case Study
Elevate Schools · San Diego, CA
Fun Run Fundraiser Timing in Action
Elevate Schools needed a timing system for their annual Fun Run fundraiser — an event where donors pledge per lap run, so every lap counts. Over two days, 500+ students ran while parents and donors around the world followed the event live. Every lap was captured automatically and posted to the live scoreboard within seconds. Final results were ready the moment the last student crossed the line — no data entry, no cleanup.
“We used JagTrax across three Fun Run events over two days, and it performed flawlessly every time. Accurate, portable, and incredibly easy to operate. This investment will support our Fun Run events for years to come.”
“Simple to set up, portable, and easy to store. The per-lap data has been incredible for helping students understand where they can improve. I'm so glad we added this to our PE program.”
