  {
    school_years: "10-12",
    rounds: [
      Round object
        metadata = {dates: Datetime object}
        fencers = [

            name

            raw_data (basically user input into scorecard)
        ]
    ]
  }
]


NOTE: the index of the fencer ids in keys corresponds to the index of rows & columsn of raw_data - so basically a parallel list


todo: incorporate the two, or split it up into sub sections.
note: age_brackets changed to categories and then to events
"ages" changed to "school_years" (as SACS groups events by school year). Might change back to "ages" if used in interschool - they group by U14, U16, U19.
