An athlete can have unlimited notes. Notes have categories such as *Questionnaire*, *Web*, *Video*, *Event, Email*. Each note has the initials of the staff member that created the note and a small icon next to the note so you know which type it is. Event notes have the name of the event as a title.

Notes are sorted from newest to oldest unless pinned.
