Combining Leaderboards are not to be confused with Leaderboard Collections. Here's the difference at a glance:
Combining Leaderboards — merges live results from multiple simultaneous locations into a single unified rankings page
Leaderboard Collections — a curated, public-facing portfolio of all your past and present events, grouped under your organizer brand
The Scenario
Some competitions don't happen in a single venue. You may host the same event across multiple cities, regions, or even countries — with athletes competing locally but being ranked globally. The Combined Leaderboard feature is built exactly for this.
Imagine you're organizing a national or international event hosted simultaneously across 10, 50, or even 100 locations. Each location:
Runs the same workouts on the same day
Manages their own scheduling, heats, and lane assignments independently
Maintains their own local leaderboard for on-site use
As each location wraps up, their results flow into a single global leaderboard that ranks all competitors across every location together — giving athletes, spectators, and organizers a unified view of the overall standings.
The Festivus Games is a great real-world example — 100 host locations across the globe, competing on the same day across multiple time zones, all feeding into one combined leaderboard.
Setting Up a Combined Leaderboard
Go to Combined Leaderboard in your menu and follow these steps:
Name your leaderboard — give it a name that reflects the event as a whole
Add your locations — select each event location you want to include. You can use the default event name or assign a custom label such as the city or venue name
Map your divisions — create and assign all divisions from each event to the combined leaderboard
Map your workouts — assign all divisions to each workout across every location
⚠️ Workout consistency is critical. For the combined leaderboard to accurately aggregate and rank competitors, every location must run workouts with the exact same setup — same scoring method, same units, same structure. Any discrepancy will affect the integrity of the global rankings.
