We are ready to take a step back, look at what we learned, listen to what the section 8 community wants and see we can realistically expect to get in terms of help. We may decide to add features or remove features. Hopefully we can keep things that grow the fan base and motivate the athletes. Feel free to let me know what you think, and send your feedback to me at track_project@trackconference.com.

This website was created and is maintained as a gift to section 8 track & field. I created it because I thought that the track community would appreciate an interactive, historical archive of results, rankings, meets, etc. I believed that if it were embraced by the community it would generate enthusiasm among the athletes. I though that by providing more information about results, meets, locations, etc we could help develop a bigger fan base for our sport and help it grow. Much of this, however, depends on getting the data and other volunteers to help. We haven’t had enough support so far.

Bob does an incredible job getting the results for this league. Most leagues around the country do not have anything close to what we get. But Bob's results are still limited. Our original idea was to get ALL performances from ALL athletes for this site. To do that I thought we could get coaches or coach-appointed volunteers to fill in the results that Bob does not get. That is what we are asking coaches or coach-appointed volunteers to help with.

The "Official Results Sheet" section of the site is updated by the league (Bob). At some point after those results are posted they are handed off as an electronic file for inclusion in the interactive results that are part of the rest of the site. We almost always post the results on the site the day after we get them.

Not questioning who is getting paid, just wanting to know why double work is being done, why is bb inputing on one system and we are inputing on another creating two lists......both incomplete.

You can have whatever you want as soon as you start doing the work. The two rankings fullfill different needs.

Is there a reason why we have two "official" sets of rankings? Can the site be reworked so we can have one set of official rankings? We have both the rankings dropdown and the rankings updated by bb.

@ section 8 coordinator - Good afternoon. Do you know when the results for the Division 2B meet will be posted. We need to review the results prior to Thursdays seeding meeting for the county meet. We can include the pole vault results for this meet after they are completed on Thursday. Thanks a lot.Coach Harrison... Westbury High.

The results should read like a meet.. It should show the score.. Some prior meets/winter have meets combined. It should look better.. Do we also still need so much information in abouve leagal notices. Can we clean it up

Charles B, those results do not appear to be the results that were posted last year, ie divisions, counties etc in the section "show official result sheets". No team scores... those appear to be whatever a coach reported not what was typed up at the site itself, being able to use those sheets could help a coach plan.Thanks

FYI: You can view previous years meet results by clicking on the Meets Results drop down menu and selecting "Spring Track Meet Results". On the page that appears you will see a link for "Show meet results from all years".

Each host school makes the call about Divisions. I can tell you that the Division meet being held at Wantagh is ON!!! I spoke to my AD earlier and we are going to get the meet in today! Not sure about any other sites. Have your AD contact host AD.

Why are the order of the events different in the division meet? You spend the whole season trying to figure out the best plan for how your team should run the meet and then it is different for the divisions.

I remember what we said about league meets being OK for seeds if home school brings the paper work.. All seeds that are going to be used should be posted on our website prior to divisions like in the past.. CORECT?
