We were pleased to be invited back to the Kent County Athletic Associations annual officials development day in November. This year, the groups focused on some of the more technical elements of athletics, from assessing implement compliance, to judging long jump take-offs using cameras.
Of course, we ran some sessions on photo finish. In the first, we covered how to set up and configure photo finish cameras. In our second session, the officials captured and read some images some athletes training whilst the starters got some practice in with Medway & Maidstone AC’s new electronic start system.
The day was well attended, if a little cold, but everyone was in great spirits from a morning of sharing and learning.
We hope to be invited back next year.
Can we support you?
We are all about officials development, so if you would like us to support your development event, or are an official that is looking for some photo finish experiences. Please do reach out.
