Ringside: your whole event, in one free app
Run the event grounds from a laptop, tablet or phone. Keep working with no internet at all, or go live and let ring stewards and competitors follow every ring in real time.
No internet needed
For the event secretary
- Day-of entries: add and change entries at the table.
- Scoring: enter results that are checked as you type, so they're right the first time.
- Print every result: judge books, results sheets, ribbons and all the reports you need on site.
- Syncs later: everything uploads when you're back online.
- Mac or PC: the website and the Ringside app both work on either, so run your trial from whichever computer you bring to the site. The app also runs on iPhone, iPad and Android.
Live running orders
For ring stewards and competitors
- Ring stewards: a running order made for quick taps. Start each class, mark each dog run or scratched in one tap, and message every competitor at once.
- Competitors: My Day shows their dogs, what's up next and how many classes run before theirs, so they can wait in their car or in the shade, not at the ring. Rings Now shows every ring at a glance.
- Messages arrive with a sound and vibration.
- Free, and linked to your event data: no keying.



Ringside Venue
Put every ring on a TV at the venue, so competitors and spectators always know what's happening, rebuilt to read clearly across the room.
- Every ring at a glance: the class in the ring and how far along it is.
- Who's up next, by armband, call name and breed.
- Your show or trial chair knows what's going on at every ring, so when people ask, you have the answer.
- Live status: started, last call, paused and why, or when it starts.
- Nothing to install: open ringside.dogshow.com in the browser on any Smart TV, computer or tablet.
