Configure break rotations
If you have ever run a large meet, you know that back-to-back rotations with no breathing room create chaos. Break rotations solve that. They are empty rotation slots that give everyone time to reset between competition rounds.
Prerequisites
What break rotations do
A break rotation is a gap in the rotation schedule where no group is competing. During that time:
Gymnasts transition between apparatus without rushing
Judges prepare for the next group
Equipment gets adjusted or repositioned
The gym clears out one group before the next comes in
In short, they keep your meet from turning into a traffic jam.
Steps
Open the session timeline or rotation configuration.
Insert a break between rotation rounds where you need one.
Set the break duration.
The break shows up in the timeline and in the schedule view that registrants see.
When to use them
Break rotations matter most at large meets where multiple groups share the same gym space. If you are running a smaller meet with plenty of time between rotations, you may not need them at all.
Consider longer breaks when apparatus setups need to change between groups, or between sessions when one group is leaving and another is arriving.
Registrants can see breaks in their schedule view, which helps coaches and families plan their day -- they know when to arrive and when they are done.
What's next
Assign gymnasts to rotations -- place gymnasts into their rotation groups
