How long does it take to create a competition on Throwdown?

About 5 minutes to publish a basic competition: name, dates, location, divisions, price. Around 20 minutes once you fine-tune your divisions, add your partners and set up detailed scoring.

Which competition formats are supported?

Individual, team (duos, trios, more), and hybrid races run in stations with heat starts. A single competition can mix several formats and as many divisions as you want.

Is the chip timing pack mandatory?

No. You can run a full competition without the pack. Chip timing is an add-on from 600 € per weekend, ideal for hybrid races or timed sprints.

How do I get the registration revenue?

Payments land directly on your Stripe Connect account. Throwdown's fee is paid by default by the athlete at registration, so you keep your ticket price. Payouts follow Stripe's standard schedule, no manual transfer from us.

Is Throwdown reliable and secure?

Yes, it's our obsession. We have built Throwdown for nearly two years, end to end, and we take the time to build everything properly. On event day, your data and your athletes' data stay protected and available.

Everything you need,
in one place.

A ticketing system built for competitions

Categories, divisions, teams, promo codes, automatic waiting list once you sell out. Stripe payment built in, cards from anywhere in the world, Apple Pay, Google Pay and local methods like iDEAL, Bancontact or Klarna, with invoices generated automatically. Add your spectator tickets and your shop, apparel, accessories or your training programmes, it all goes through the same basket. Your athletes register in two minutes from their phone.

An event page that sells itself

Present your competition with no code: cover, practical info, access, divisions, sponsors. A clean, SEO-ready public page your athletes share in one link.

Stay in touch with your registrants

Send your emails from the platform, registration confirmation, race-day info, last-minute changes. Target one division or everyone, and paste in your own HTML if you already have your templates. Messaging is built in, announcement channels for the big news and a private thread with each athlete, all in one place. Delivery tracking shows who received and who read.

Heats generated in one click

Throwdown builds your heats for you. In hybrid racing it uses the finish time each athlete estimates at registration, helped by a small calculator, so the athletes running at the same pace start together. In functional fitness it spreads the divisions out and balances the field across the same time grid, on one floor or on several, and it only opens an extra floor when that genuinely shortens the day. You keep control with drag-and-drop and the planning exports to Excel.

Athlete check-in, no hassle

Check athletes in on arrival and assign chips for hybrid races. On large fields you give every athlete or every team a bib number, so everyone finds their place at warm-up and at check-in. Check-in feeds both the planning generation and the ranking.

The ranking computes itself

One person enters the scores, the engine does the rest. You pick the scale, linear or the official Games table, and it applies coefficients, tie-breaks and sub-categories with no math errors. Your athletes follow the ranking and their own heat times live on their phone, everything reads at a glance and that is what makes the day feel alive. A wrong score is disputed with one button, messaging puts you in touch and it is fixed before the next heat.

Take your competition
to the next level

Functional fitness

Make your competition a success. Individual, teams or both in the same event. Create as many divisions as you need and set each one on its own, team format, level, sub-categories, number of spots and price. The heat planning generates itself and the ranking updates as the scores come in.
