Race Timing

It always ends with a FINISH TIME.

Zsports are proud and active members of Finish Time which provides the latest in cutting-edge sports timing technology. We use low frequency transponders with our RFID timing systems and disposable UHF timing chips with our ultra timing systems for over 300,000 competitors a year, with the very best in race timing software that has been used to time some of the biggest and most prestigious events in the world.

For smaller events, Zsports use the Race Tec revolutionary and affordable admin and timing system which runs off smarphones and mobile devices. RaceTec Toolkit provides clubs and event administrators with an affordable and easy-to-use system that manages smaller events (up to 250 competitors) via smartphones and mobile devices. It is designed to work seamlessly with FinishTime Passport, the free competitor-orientated app created to make registration safe, secure and efficient. Together, the two apps provide a beginning-to-end system that covers race registration and late entries, timekeeping and results.

Finish Time hardware and software enables Zsports to provide live timing and results on demand to organisers and competitors, as well as a variety of optional extras, such as: a fast, safe, simple and secure registration; commentary displays; live screens; live tracking; presentation results on demand; results to web; SMS messaging; online certificates; race bibs and stickers. Added to this is our online registration, social media, videography, press releases, photography and website development services, all of which makes us a one-stop shop for event organisers who are looking to provide a top event for their entrants.
