You are running a functional fitness competition or a hybrid race, and you are looking for the tool that handles it all: registrations, payments, scoring and a ranking shown on the big screen on the day. Here is what you need to choose.
3 reasons to choose Throwdown
A lower commission
Your athletes pay less in fees, 3% + 1.50 € vs 5% + 1.55 €. On 200 athletes at 60 €, that is several hundred euros less in fees for them, and a more attractive entry.
Professional chip timing
Velcro transponders and a professional high-precision battery-powered sensor rented for the weekend. Times flow into the ranking on their own, with no manual stopwatch.
An app for your athletes
Your athletes follow their schedule, their heat and the live ranking on iOS and Android, with notifications on the day.
Price: what you really pay
Both platforms charge on registration sales, with no subscription. We take 3% + 1.50 € per registration, Scoring.fit 5% + 1.55 €. Since fees are added on top of the ticket price the athlete pays, a lower commission makes your registrations cheaper: on a competition of 200 athletes at 60 €, that is several hundred euros less in fees for your athletes. In both cases, the athlete pays online and you collect the ticket price directly to your account.

Professional chip timing
If you want to run a hybrid race, you want reliable times without a manual stopwatch. We offer a professional timing system: velcro transponders and a high-precision battery-powered sensor rented for the weekend. You place the sensor at the finish, times flow automatically into the ranking, and your athletes get an experience close to an official race.
