Online Entry Instructions
Entries for the Coca-Cola LowCountry Invitational must be submitted on-line with scrunners.com. Please follow the directions below to submit your entries.
CLAIMING YOUR TEAM
Step 1: Go to your home MileSplit – address is state abbreviation.milesplit.com – ex: http://pa.milesplit.com.
If you already have a userID and password from your MileSplit state, skip to Step 3. If you do not, then you must first do Step 2.
Step 2: In the header on the right, it will say "you are not logged in." Beside that, click the "Register" button, and fill out the information. You can select your own ID, but you will be emailed a password (which you can change later).
Step 3: Please note you may be on the national portal - www.milesplit.com. There are no teams on the national portal, so if you do not see Teams on the nav bar - you will need to switch to your home state to find your team. Either change the www to your 2 digit state abbreviation, or click on the navy bar over MileSplit - the Premier HS TF/XC Network to go to the about us page which has the list of states links toward the bottom of the page. Once you are on your individual state page, you will see a nav bar that includes Teams. Click on “Teams” in the toolbar and locate your team.
Step 4: Click on your team name and once on that page, look beneath the team title and then click the link that says "Claim this Team."
Step 5: Click either Coach or Team Administrator, but not both. Each has the same access to your team roster and online meet registration.
Step 6: Click on the "Yes, I am a coach on this team" at the bottom of that page. You may add your team position in the text box, and any other information you believe we will need to quickly verify you are a coach. A school email address is also a very good indicator we use.
Step 7: Wait for a confirmation email from MileSplit saying that you are approved to be a Team Coach or Team Admin. Most requests are approved within several hours. If you have not received the email within 12 hours, please check your junk or spam folders for the email.
If you have questions, please feel free to contact, MileSplit Online Registration support, Gayle Rich at grich@milesplit.us.
