Groups organize swimmers into named sets: a squad, a relay, an age group. Open Groups, select Add group, and add swimmers. Free with an account.
What Groups shows you
Groups turn a long list of swimmers into something you can actually use. Put swimmers that belong together, training partners, a relay, the same age bracket, into one named set.
Groups also power Group Comparison, which ranks everyone in a group per event with medals.
Step by step
Open Groups
On your phone, select More, then Groups. On a computer, Groups is in the side menu.
Create a group
Select Add group, type a Group Name, and add swimmers. Swimmers you follow show up as suggestions, and the search finds any other swimmer. Select Create group.
Check and edit
Each group card shows how many swimmers are in it. Select a card to rename the group or change who is in it.
Remove what you no longer need
Use the delete button on a group card. Removing a group never removes the swimmers from My swimmers.
Put the group to work
Select Progress on a group to rank every member in one event.
Where to find it
Free, with a free account
Free. You need a free Gophin account, because it works with the swimmers you follow.
Tips
- Group by what you compare. A relay, an age bracket, or a training squad each make a clean group.
- Any swimmer can join a group. Swimmers you follow are the quick picks, and the search finds everyone else.
- Small groups read faster. A focused set beats one giant group.
- Deleting a group is safe. The swimmers stay in My swimmers.
Common questions
How do I organize swimmers into groups in Gophin?
Open Groups (under More on your phone, in the side menu on a computer). Select Create group, give it a name, and add the swimmers that belong together, such as a relay, an age bracket, or a squad. Swimmers you follow show up first, and the search finds anyone else.
If I delete a group, do I lose the swimmers?
No. Removing a group never removes the swimmers from My swimmers. They stay in your follow list, only the group set is removed.
Is creating and ranking groups free?
Yes. Creating groups and ranking them per event with Group Comparison are both free with a free Gophin account.
