# How to Create and Assign Awards
The **Awards tool** allows you to create, manage, and assign a variety of awards to recognise participant achievements. Awards can be configured manually, displayed publicly, and assigned automatically during results processing.
To create and assign awards, follow the steps below:
1\. Login to the **[dashboard](https://hubspot.raceroster.com/en-us/knowledge-base/signing-in-to-race-roster-and-accessing-dashboards?hsLang=en-us)** as an Event Organizer.
2\. Navigate to the left hand sidebar and select **Results** under **Apps**
3\. After being redirected to the Results platform, click the **Awards** tab.
4\. To create an award, enable the feature by toggling the **Enable awards** setting. Then click **+ Create your first award**.
5\. When creating an award, ensure all required fields are completed and optional fields are filled in as applicable:
| **Field** | **Value** |
| --- | --- |
| **Label** | The name of the award as it will appear in results and reports. |
| **Group** | The award group this award belongs to. Groups are used to organise and control how awards are processed and displayed. |
| **Based on rank or time field** | Determines which result metric is used to calculate the award (e.g. gun time, chip time, or rank). |
| **Number of recipients** | The number of participants who will receive this award (e.g. top 3 finishers). |
| **Award double dipping** | Controls whether a participant who wins this award can also qualify for other awards. |
| **Restrict to specific races** | Limits the award to participants in selected races or sub-events only. |
| **Restrict by gender** | Limits the award to participants of a specific gender. |
| **Restrict by age** | Limits the award to participants within a defined age range or category. |
| **Restrict by custom value** | Limits the award based on a custom field or value within the results data. |
| **Restrict by registration question** | Limits the award based on responses to a registration question (e.g. club, category, or eligibility question). |
6\. Once the award has been configured, click **Save & Exit**.
Additional award groups, divisions, or age categories can be created to help organise how awards are displayed on the results page.
7\. When ready to assign awards, return to the **Awards** overview page, click the three-dot action menu, and select **Auto-assign awards**.
The awards will be assigned to the appropriate finishers based on the award configuration. If new results are uploaded after creating an award, re-assign the awards to update the winners.
8\. To make the results viewable to the public, click the toggle under **Display awards publicly.** (This is enabled by default).
9\. Find the **Awards** tab on the **Results** **page** to view award winners, or view the small trophy icon located within a runner's result to see if they were a winner of an award.
