New Rankings Website - Update
Created on: 18 Jan 2012
We are currently building a new Rankings website to take into account the change to the new age groups that came into force on 1st January 2012. We are also adding some additional features and attempting to address some of the data merging issues in the current site. We hope to have the new site (same web address) up and running in the next few weeks. In the meantime your patience is requested.

The Athletics New Zealand ranking lists are regularly updated. When looking at data on the ranking lists you should note:
-
The ranking lists cover either the New Zealand Domestic Season/s (1 May - 30 April) or the Calendar Year/s (1 January - 31 December). Listed performances commenced on 1st April 2008.
-
Only athletes who are currently registered on the Athletics New Zealand Membership database will be ranked. Athletes who take only one-day registration for events will not appear in the ranking lists.
-
Minimum performances have been established for each event and age group for ranking purposes. However, these are constantly reviewed. Performances by an athlete with a performance below the minimum established performance will not be listed. SEE HERE
-
Also by clicking on an athletes name in a ranking list will give a profile of that athlete together with a list of rank-able performances for the season. Performances below the minimum established performance standard will not be shown in this profile.
-
Standard abbreviations (ATFS / IAAF) are used to denote performances.
-
Hand-timed performances. Performances that are hand timed are designated
by "ht" after the performance. However, the time displayed is shown to a
1/100th of a second. Correctly the hand-timed performance is to a 1/10th of
a second and therefore the last zero of the displayed time should be
disregarded.
-
Place in competition. Because of the very different ways in which results
are presented it is sometimes difficult to represent the actual finishing
place that the athlete achieved in the competition. Sometimes results are
listed in finishing order of the event. In other circumstances different age
groups compete in the same event and age group finishing positions are
given - in other sets of results they are not differentiated in this manner.
Similarly in mixed gender competitions, some results are presented with the
finishing position given by both /or either of gender and by age group,
whilst other sets of results do not differentiate between finishing order of
gender and / or age group. There are also cases where results are "grouped"
by event, rather than in the individual events they were actually competed
in. Caution therefore needs to be exercised in the interpretation of
finishing order in some events / competitions.
-
In order to keep the ranking list current and accurate, athletes or coaches are advised to contact stats@athletics.org.nz with any omissions, corrections or queries. Once the data has been verified or otherwise then the performance will be listed or the respondent will be advised as to the reason for the ommission.
