  • Standard Tables 2020 E.S.A.A
    Standard Tables 2020 E.S.A.A. National Standards are those performance levels for which standard badges may be purchased at the National Championships. Entry Standards are the minimum performance levels normally required for an athlete to be selected for a County Team for the National Championships. County Standards correspond to a good standard of performance by an athlete competing in a County Championship meeting. District Standard corresponds to a good standard of performance by an athlete competing at a District Championship meeting. These may need amendment to suit the variations in type of District Championship staged. School Standard corresponds to a good standard of performance by an athlete competing at a School Championship meeting. Except for Year 7 and 8 tables - the age groups, events and event specifications are as set out in the Track and Field Competition Rules. Years 7 and 8 The variety of events and specifications is offered in order to cater for the intense athletic interest and for the rapid physical changes which take place at this stage. It is stressed that success in the initial teaching of athletics stems from the understanding that the physical challenge to the pupil should not exceed that which can be comfortably handled. All children, therefore, should be started with light implements and low hurdles, and be allowed to progress as appropriate to themselves. This will almost certainly create some problems of organisation at school level, but these are NOT insurmountable. The Standards shown for younger age groups and for School and District level are being re-worked to match the Awards Scheme.

Fantastic work by the racewalking judges – show the red card to COVID-19! Ok, no races on which to report this week but lots of news about the ongoing implications of COVID-19. Firstly what’s happening on the local front • At the moment, the following two events are still scheduled, but obviously final decisions will be made closer to the day ◦ Aug 22 (Sat), 2020 Australian Cross Country Championships, Adelaide ◦ Aug 30 (Sun), 2020 Australian Roadwalk Championships (and RWA Carnival), Melbourne • However, Sporting Schools Australia has announced the cancellation of all sports carnivals this year and therefore will not be holding their cross country championships in Adelaide in August. I know that some walkers also compete in this meet. ◦ August 23 (Sun), 2020 Sporting Schools Australia Cross Country Championships, Adelaide (CANCELLED) • Athletics Australia announced last mnth that the Australian T&F Championships (Sydney, March) had been postponed. That has now been changed to a cancellation. Alas, no Australian T&F Championships this year.

The dislance was 12(1 by Sergio Guarda Etcheverry yards, with an approach and finish of 15 yards and a 10 yards spacing between 10 hurdles, 3 foot 6 inches in height. These measurements formed the basis for the event when it was included in the firsi modern Olympic Games, held at Athens in 1896. There, measurements became the metric equivalents. 1 Ul metres dislance. 10 hurdles 106.7cm in height and 9.14 metres apart, a dislance from starl line lo first hurdle of 13.72 metres and from lasl hurdle to finish of 14.02 meires.

  • Evolution of the Hurdle-Unit Kinematic Parameters in the 60 M Indoor Hurdle Race
    applied sciences Article Evolution of the Hurdle-Unit Kinematic Parameters in the 60 m Indoor Hurdle Race Pablo González-Frutos 1,*, Santiago Veiga 2, Javier Mallo 2 and Enrique Navarro 2 1 Faculty of Health Sciences, Universidad Francisco de Vitoria, 28223 Madrid, Spain 2 Health and Human Performance Department, Technical University of Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] (S.V.); [email protected] (J.M.); [email protected] (E.N.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-659-83-26-09 Received: 16 October 2020; Accepted: 30 October 2020; Published: 4 November 2020 Featured Application: Coaches and athletes should implement their training programs to have an impact on some of these variables according to the specific demands of each hurdle-unit phase and gender. Abstract: The aims of this study were to compare the five hurdle-unit split times from the deterministic model with the hurdle-to-hurdle model and with the official time, to compare the step kinematics of each hurdle-unit intervals, and to relate these variables to their respective hurdle-unit split times. The temporal and spatial parameters of the 60 m hurdles race were calculated during the 44th Spanish and 12th IAAF World Indoor Championships (men: n = 59; women: n = 51). The hurdle-unit split times from the deterministic model showed a high correlation (r = 0.99; p < 0.001) with the split times of the hurdle-to-hurdle model and faster split times were related to shorter step and flight times in hurdle steps for both genders. At the first hurdle, male athletes tended to increase their flight and contact times while the tendency of female athletes was to decrease their contact and flight times.

  • The Man Who Almost Lost His Pants
    THE MAN WHO ALMOST LOST HIS PANTS By Tony Bijkerk Last year, 2001, the Royal Netherlands Athletic Union [KNAU] celebrated its centennial anniversary, although the sport of athletics in fact has a much longer history in the Netherlands. As usual in these cases, a memorial book was published, rather prosaically titled: 1870-2000 – 130 jaar atletiek in Nederland. Reading through the book, one specific story claimed my undivided attention. It told about the strange experience of one of our athletes during the Games of the VIIIth Olympiad, Paris 1924. The athlete was Jan Zeegers, a long distance runner, born 28 March 1902 in Amsterdam, who died 29 November 1978 in Amsterdam. Zeegers was told to have competed in the 3000 metres steeple chase in Paris, and it was his first steeplechase ever. Jan Zeegers, the man who almost lost hist pants The story told in the memorial book was hilarious, Strangely enough, nothing about his participation in because it seemed that Zeegers had to abandon the this event is mentioned in any report, or statistical race for a very special reason. During the race, he book. came close to losing his pants as they became very Neither the 1924 Paris Official Report, nor wet after he fell backwards into the water after Ekkehard zur Megede’s books on Olympic track & jumping over the hurdle for the first time.
