Almanac 2013 1 Almanac_2013.indd 1 4/03/14 4:18 pm INTRODUCTION Introduction We are pleased to be able to offer you this fourth annual edition of the Almanac. A number of changes took place in January 2013 to the way age groups were designated. Finally, the age groups in New Zealand were aligned to the IAAF (and indeed the rest of the world) when not only the age group name and the age as at 31st December in the year of competition was implemented. We also only had to produce ranking lists for a calendar year, (like the rest of the world again!) rather than having to present lists for both the calendar year and the domestic season. Another development in the year was that we were able to create “live” All-Time lists, where any performance that was better than (in most cases) the 20th best of all-time was automatically included in the all-time list. Work in this coming year will include consolidating the lists of Records. Again for this edition we have collected most of the data ourselves over the past few months – so we take responsibility for any errors. Once again, before getting immersed in the content, we would advise you to spend a few minutes reading the Notes section which details some of the intricacies of the data. Stephen Hollings & Simon Holroyd February 2014 Acknowledgements We are grateful to the following colleagues and associates who provided content and their expertise to sections of this almanac: Gavin Lovegrove of Lovegrove Design, designed the cover, undertook the typesetting and layout and coordinated and supervised the printing of the Almanac. Terry Lomax supplied the data relating to the Athletics New Zealand Grand Prix Series NOTES 2013 Calendar Year – The material in this Almanac covers the 2013 Calendar year which is from 1st January 2013 until 31st December 2013. Age Groups – New Zealand had three age groups in 2013. They were: Youth Men/Women, Junior Men/Women, Senior Men/Women. These were the same as the IAAF definition. (see table below) Names – We have used the convention that the athletes name as recorded on the Athletics New Zealand membership database is the name of the athlete that we record in our statistics. Names of athletes on the Athletics New Zealand membership database are some- times at variance with the name used when entering a competition. Some athletes interchange abbreviated names and differently spelt first names across competitions. Further, many athletes names on registration become abbreviated or differently spelt when they enter a competition. We have endeavoured to be consistent but in many instances the athlete themselves prefer to be known by either name – depending on the circumstances (and their mood!). 2 Athletics New Zealand - Almanac 2013 Almanac_2013.indd 2 4/03/14 4:18 pm INTRODUCTION Name Change – Some athletes do change their family name due to specific circumstances e.g. marriage. Again we use the same convention as above – the family name they are using in the entry list or results of a competition. As far as we are aware the only athletes who have different family names in different parts of this Almanac are: Valerie Adams – Valerie Vili Tania Murray – Tania Murray-Dixon Demelza Murrihy – Demelza Murrihy-Topp Danielle Trevis – Danielle Ingram –Trevis Lesley Morton – Lesley Ryan Leonora Joy-Petrina – Leonora Petrina Bryn Jones – Bryn McLeod-Jones Jordan de Spong – Jordan Rackham Affiliation - Again we have used the convention that the athlete’s affiliation is the one under which they are registered on the Athlet- ics New Zealand membership database. We are reliant on athletes informing us of a change of affiliation (Centre/Club). For records, an athlete may be representing their club, their Centre, or has been selected to represent New Zealand. Whichever representation is officially recorded at the time of the competition where a record is set is the one that we use. Ranking Lists – Age group athletes’ performances (Junior Men/Women, Youth Men/Women) will also appear in the Open Men/Women lists if the event specification (implement weight/ hurdle height) of the age group is the same as that of the specification for Senior Men/Women. Youth Men/Women athletes will not appear additionally in the Junior men/Women lists unless they compete with Junior Men/Women implements/hurdle heights. All-Time Lists – The All-time lists were first compiled in early 2010
