THIS is the 65th year of Athletics Weekly’s results service and once again the magazine will try to ensure every run, jump or throw of merit appears in print. Performances will also be automatically fed to Athletics Data for publication on UKA’s Power of 10 website.
Please see here for our 2010 Standards which are the minimum depth to which AW endeavours to collect results.
Ideally we would like you to submit results as soon after the event on excel spreadsheets as that enables us to easily transfer the data into a format for the Athletics Weekly processors by e-mailing results@athletics-weekly.com.
Please ensure date, venue, event name and league name (if appropriate) are included in the body of the email and on any attachment of results and give your email a descriptive subject line. For each performance, please provide first name, surname, club, performance, wind speed (if applicable – plus the best legal jumps for any performances where the best jump was windy - >2mps), age group (if not clear from the context) and gender. It is also essential to indicate an athlete’s precise position within a race, even if, for example, you are submitting an abbreviated version of a series of sprints. Please indicate where athletes have thrown non-standard implements for their age group or where it is otherwise not evident.
Alternatively:
By fax to: 01733-808535
By post to: Athletics Weekly Limited, PO Box 614, Farnham, Surrey, GU9 1PE
By phone to: 01733-808534. If you are telephoning results, please pick out in advance all performances meeting AW’s standards.
Additionally there is a results collection spreadsheet that can be found here. See here for full instructions on how to use the spreadsheet.
This spreadsheet needs no installation, is simple to use and has an online help file. It requires Microsoft Excel (all versions from 2002 onwards).
If you have any questions about the operation of the spreadsheet, call Jacky Brett on 01733-808546 or Steve Smythe on 01733-808534. If you have your own results system please contact Jacky or Steve to discuss an automated feed from your system.
