I am interested, how do I start?

Contact us#

Feel free to contact us through the form on the homepage, or write to us at [email protected], sending us the information about your competition: dates, how many athletes will take part, the age classes, a phone number (and the times when it is convenient for you to talk). We will call you as soon as possible to talk about how to simplify your competition.

Demo and feedback#

If you are interested, we will give you credentials for a demo with fictitious athletes already entered. This will help you get familiar with the program, and also give you an idea of what could be added. Our work succeeds thanks to the collaboration of everyone who chooses to use us: if you have ideas you would like to see in the program, write to us! We can improve every day thanks to people like you!

You can try and use the scoreboard without an account, on this page.

Requirements#

The philosophy of Judo in Cloud is to give power to the organizer. No specialized technician needs to come on the day of the competition to prepare everything. All you need are modern computers with an up-to-date web browser (Chrome or Firefox) and an internet connection.

As for the number of computers, you will need one per competition area, one for the weigh-in room, one for the accreditation at the entrance of the venue and one for the coordinator, plus some spares for emergencies. You do not need to download any program, just go to our website and log in with the credentials we give you. However, make sure they are all configured for internet access before the competition.

As for the internet connection, Judo in Cloud uses very little bandwidth. An internet dongle, a SIM in a modem or a phone hotspot is enough. However, make sure there is signal inside the sports hall. You do not need a lot of power: we have optimized our application as much as possible to ensure fast performance even in the worst situations!

If it is really not possible to have an internet connection at the event, unfortunately the program cannot be used on the day of the competition, but we can still help you with the registrations and the draws (more details below)

Payment#

Our service offers everything together in a single package, at the very convenient price of one euro (1,00€) per athlete. This includes the pre-competition features, such as online registrations and draw simulations that can be created the day before, and the features for the day of the event, such as draws created on the spot (which take into account the athletes actually present and those who registered on the same day), the immediate distribution of the tournaments to the tatami computers, automatic repechages and rankings, and the public page that gives athletes, coaches and the public access to the match data.

One week before the competition, you must pay the first half of the fee, based on the number of expected athletes: for example, if 300 athletes are expected at the competition, the first instalment will be 150€. The second instalment is calculated on the athletes actually present: if 315 athletes showed up, the second instalment will be 165€ (to reach 315€); if 280 showed up, it will be 130€. If the program does not work on the day of the competition and becomes unusable, for any reason, you will not need to pay the second instalment.
