Contactless Punching
Contactless punching, commonly known as SI Air, will be available at all events. To take advantage of contactless punching you must use a SPORTident ActiveCard (SIAC stick). The use of a SIAC stick is recommended for all competitors, however it is not compulsory.
Conventional SI sticks can still be used, in the normal fashion with direct punching.
More information on SI Air is available here.

Frequently Asked Questions
I forgot to pre-enter today’s event, can I just turn up and enter on the day?

I do not have a SIAC stick, can I still participate?
