  • Not Brecon Or Cardiff the Number of Competing Teams
    The Welsh Schools National Track & Field Championships – 50 years ago! The first of the Welsh Schools’ national track and field championships – for boys only – was held in June 1947, at Taff Vale Park in Pontypridd and, with the exception of 1984, they had been held each year up until 2019, which was the 72nd staging. Because of the current coronavirus pandemic regulations, the 2020 ‘nationals’ have rightly been cancelled. To give pupils, parents, teachers and volunteers a flavour of how things ‘used to be’, we provide an outline of what happened at the event 50 years ago – in 1970 The Date – not the first weekend in July Most of us associate the date of these ‘national’ championships with the first weekend in July but, for many years, they were held on the second weekend in July. In 1970, the event was held on Saturday, July 11th. The Venue – not Brecon or Cardiff Since 2001, the ‘nationals’ have been held either in Cardiff or at Penlan in Brecon. Prior to that year, the venue rotated around Wales. In 1970, the event was staged at Eirias Park in Colwyn Bay, Denbighshire – the fifth time that the event had been held there. This was a facility with a six lane cinder track. The venue on the north Wales coastline meant that competing teams from the south took nearly all of the Friday before the event to travel north in the team coach (or coaches) on roads not designed for high speed travel. Teams travelling from the south could not get to Colwyn Bay and back in a day, so they were ‘hosted’ by local residents and families in the area surrounding the venue.

  • Standards Scheme 2011/2012
    AAA STANDARDS SCHEME 2011/2012 THE COMMON STANDARDS SCHEME THE COMMON STANDARDS SCHEME The agreement reached in 1996 between representatives of the AAA of England and the Celtic Countries in respect of the recognition of common Track and Field Standards essentially remains in force. The performances listed hereunder (with the exception of non UK YAL competition for Under 13 age group athletes in N.Ireland) apply to all British Athletics, irrespective of whether any Country intends, or not, to make Certificates and/or Badges available to their athletes. With the advent of data bases of performances it has been decided to completely revise the standards tables every two years and to introduce standards for events which appear in the data bases which have not previously appeared in the tables. The method of revising the tables has been to look at the total number of performances recorded in the data bases and to try to pitch the standards such that the top 7.5% of performances would attain a grade 1 standard; the top 15% of performances a grade 2 standard; the top 30% a grade 3 standard; the top 65% a grade 4 standard. Some events have been removed due to there being insufficient data on which to base a realistic standard. Whilst the walks fall into this category their standards have been retained in the hope that more performances will be forthcoming. The Standards for Senior athletes are for guidance only as there are no badges available for that age group. It is recognised that this is the area where performances seem to be decreasing but perhaps this is due to the larger participation in area leagues rather than a diminishing performance at the top levels – international and elite.
