Wrestling Stats will be C:\CWS50\WEBIN.

Proceed with the download of CWSSTATS.CSV

Depending on the version of your desktop browser, you will be presented with dialogs similar to those below.

See Help document below. Choose SAVE AS for your option and navigate using the dialog below to

C:\CWS50\WEBIN (strongly suggested) or a designated download location. Your browser may only have the

option to SAVE the file CWSSTATS.CSV to a default DOWNLOADS folder on your Desktop PC. If this is

the case, make sure you are aware of that location and use that location when importing into Champion

Wrestling Stats desktop.

Click Yes when asked to replace CWSSTATS.CSV.

It is strongly suggested that you change your browser settings to “Always ask me where to save files”.

When downloading matches to your PC, the file name should be saved as CWSSTATS.CSV. We recommend

saving this file in c:\cws50\webin, the location that Champion Wrestling Stats desktop will look for when

importing stats.

Many browsers will by default save the file to the Downloads folder. If cwsstats.csv is already there, it may

save the new download as CWSSTATS.CSV(1) or CWSSTATS.CSV (2) etc… This will not work.

When you import files, Champion Wrestling Stats desktop will be looking for CWSSTATS.CSV, not

CWSSTATS.CSV (1). The file needed by Champion Wrestling Stats desktop must be saved as

CWSSTATS.CSV.

Opening the file and doing a Save As, saving the file as CWSSTATS.CSV can accomplish this.

Tip: Here is a link to a Help document for Changing Download Location in Mozilla Firefox, Internet

Select the appropriate directory (folder) where you downloaded this file. The default location for the

downloaded stats file CWSSTATS.CSV will be C:\CWS50\WEBIN. Champion Wrestling Stats desktop will

always look for a file named CWSSTATS.CSV. If your browser automatically saves the file to the Downloads

folder or another folder, it may append a number after CWSSTATS.CSV and change the name to

CWSSTATS.CSV(1). This file needed for import must be saved as CWSSTATS.CSV. Opening the file and

doing a Save As, saving the file as CWSSTATS.CSV can accomplish this.

Tip: Here is a link to a Help document for Changing Download Location in Mozilla Firefox, Internet

Explorer, Google Chrome and Safari. www.pes-sports.com\ChangeDownloadLoc.pdf

• Preview

• Edit

• Finish Upload

• Cancel

Each of the above options will be explained in detail on the following pages.

may be printed for a more complete review before finishing the import process. You have the option of

previewing or printing a Basic or a Detail report.

Basic Report

Detail Report

Edit

This option allows you to make changes to any matches. Editing this data is similar to editing stats, as you

would do when making changes to your stats on the Desktop PC.

Normally a coach would enter information that was not entered matside such as team points, place in

tournament, actual weight at weigh-in, etc… You could exit at this time and go back to the Mobile Web Server

and make the changes there. However, editing is probably easier on the Desktop PC. Editing can be done here

or after the matches have been imported into Champion Wrestling Stats.

Finish Import

This option actually moves the downloaded stats into the Current Season. Make sure you are in the correct

season before taking this option. The only way to undo this action is to individually delete matches that were

added during the import. It is strongly suggested that you BackUp Current Season before importing matches

to Champion Wrestling Stats desktop.

You will be presented with the following verification screen.

The following screen will indicate that the import has been successful.

Cancel

At any time before finishing the import, you can click CANCEL, make changes on the Mobile Web Server,

and import your stats another time.

Clear All Matches

Once you have successfully imported your matches into Champion Wrestling Stats, you can Clear All

Matches on the Mobile Web Server. You will then be ready for another match entry session on the Mobile

Web Server.

If you do not Clear All Matches before entering additional stats, previous matches (stats) entered will be

duplicated then next time you download to the Desktop PC and import into Champion Wrestling Stats.

At this time make a BackUp of your Current Season on the Desktop PC. Open Champion Wrestling Stats

desktop version and click File | BackUp Current Season…

Important!

If you are at a dual meet or tournament and decide you need to Clear All Matches, make sure that other users

from your school have not already entered matches. Clear All Matches will delete all existing matches on the

Mobile Web Server.

Important: Make sure that the coach or designated statistician performs this procedure and does a BackUp of

your Current Season prior to each match entry session.

BackUp Current Season

At this time make a BackUp of your Current Season on the Desktop PC. Open Champion Wrestling Stats

desktop version and click File | BackUp Current Season…

You will be presented with the following screen (Select Directory). Click on the Drive and navigate to the

location where you wish to BackUp your Current Season.

Registration including Coach Password and Stat Taker Password.
