About This Site
This is a new interactive website being developed for Section VIII Cross Country and Track & Field. Your comments, suggestions and general feedback are encouraged!

The goal of the website is ambitious. We want it to be a complete, permanent record of meet performances of all section VIII cross country and track and field athletes. Interactive reports will let you view performance summaries for each athlete, each school and each meet throughout the season.

The site started with Cross Country 2007, but will continue to evolve. Eventually, prior year data that we have on file will be added into the system. This will not only let us show those prior year results, but will allow us to show comparison reports and ‘best ever’ reports between seasons. We expect to add Track and Field data by the start of the Winter track season and keep expanding from there.

Collecting Data
Did we mention that this is ambitious? As you might imagine, aside from building this site, collecting and entering the data for all performances is a huge ongoing project. We will start by collecting all meet data from meets run by Section VIII. But making the site the complete and permanent resource that it can be will require that every team participate by adding the performance data from outside meets in which they compete. We’ll post more about how this can be done and about how teams can fill in their top performer data from year’s past.

Who We Are
Initial development of the TrackConference project and this website is sponsored through contributions by Charles Bindert and Spontaneous Development, Inc.  Much of the existing performance data and content are provided by and based on work done by Bob Beer.

Long term, our goal to make this a "community based site" where much of the content, management and improvement are made by many people.  Interested volunteers can help with many different ways.  Some examples are:
