AWARD: “Kid GOTY” for junior performance
CLUB PRINCIPLE: COACHING LED
This award recognizes outstanding performance (GOTY – Greatest Of The Year) by a junior athlete.
How is a winner chosen?
It is based on how close junior athletes (under 18 on 1st April of award year) get to their event’s national record (if available). The calculation looks at the difference between the record and the athlete’s season personal best, and compares this to the record itself.
The records used are at the end of each period (1st September), and are age graded. The record data is based on that published by England Athletics and the British Masters Athletics Federation.
Athlete performance is based on England Athletics data published on The Power of 10.
Please note: detailed eligibility criteria for our 2025 awards are being reviewed and will be updated shortly.
