How to start drills with NFC wristbands?

Learn how to:  Start timing gates drills with Scan and Start Kit  Start reaction lights drills with Scan and Start Kit

Follow the step-by-step instructions below to set up and execute drills with the "Scan and Start Kit."

You will need:

1) Scan and start wristbands

2) NFC reader

3) Sportreact device

4) Sportreact PLUS subscription

 

1. Distribute the NFC Wristbands

Ensure each athlete has an assigned NFC band.

2. Connect the NFC Reader

Pair the NFC reader with the the Sportreact app via Bluetooth. 

3. Set up the activity

Choose or customize the desired drill within the app.

If you're using a timing gate system, input the distance between the gates.

4. Link an athlete to the App

Before each attempt, the athlete should tap their NFC band on the reader to register. This ensures the system recognizes the athlete's participation.

To get accurate analytics data while using the timing gates system, please make sure that each athlete performing the drill has a fully completed profile (including data: name, age, sex, sport, height, weight); and that you enter distance between the gates in the app when aligning the gates.
 

5. Start the drill

Once the athlete taps the NFC reader, the activity will start loading.

 TIMING SYSTEM:

  • The athlete must wait 2-3 seconds as the system prepares ("Activity preparing" will appear on the screen).
  • When "Ready" appears on the screen or when the initial gates show a GREEN SQUARE, the activity is loaded and the athlete may start their attempt.

REACTION; RAGS & CHALLENGE MODE: 

  • The reaction system will begin a countdown before the drill starts.

6. Start timing

TIMING SYSTEM:

  • The athlete triggers the first gate by passing through (while wearing their NFC band!). This starts the timing sequence.

REACTION; RAGS & CHALLENGE MODE: 

  • The athlete must wait until the countdown completes before beginning the drill.

7. Record results

  • The system automatically records the athlete’s performance once they complete the drill (by passing through the final gate or deactivating the last pod).
  • The recorded data includes split times and deactivation times.

8. Prepare for the next athlete

Once the first athlete finishes, the next athlete taps the NFC reader to register their attempt.
When the first gates change to GREEN SQUARE or the app signals “Ready,” the new athlete can begin their run.

9. See the results

When all athletes finish their reps, click Finish to see the results.

10. Save the data

If you want to save the data, press button Save. Fill out all the necessary fields in the "Save reps" section:

Name - name your sessions

Description - write a short description

Session tags - choose tags you want to attribute to your session so you can filter these reps in the analysis
