General Leaderboards over multiple competitions.

Question

For the pupil competition, at the end of the fourth and final competition, an overall leaderboard is established. Not only the best athlete, but also the one who has made the most progress compared to the other competitions.

Currently everything is administered in separate Excel files, which compared to my experiences Athletics.app is a lot more time consuming and error prone. Is it possible to link from multiple competitions to keep an overall leaderboard of these by age category?

Answer 1

We get several requests for this from different track circuits.

It is currently possible to set up overall rankings for Athletics Champs and for combined-events.

A requirement is that on all competitions combined-events were done and no single events. A new combined-event is then formed, where only the X best events per athlete count. In a similar way, an association ranking can also be established.

There are no other options at this time.

Would you please specify in a comment (or edit your question) exactly how the overall ranking should be established?

The overall standings are established as follows; athletes compete in four competitions.

Combined-events 1: Sprint, long distance, far and ball throwing
Combined-event 2: Sprint, long distance, high and shot put
Combined-events 3: Sprint, long distance, far and ball throwing
Combined-events 4: Sprint, long distance, high and shot put

At the end of the last competition, the leaderboards will be drawn up, and there they will see who has scored the best overall on all events. Only the best result from each event is valid. In addition, there is also a look at who has made the most progress compared to the other competitions.

I can also see a variation coming, where all results are really looked at, with the only one having the most points over all four competitions.
