True Inclusion Method (TIM)

At Hamersley we promote the True Inclusion Method (or “TIM”) as a method of recognising individual achievement and improvement in individual results. 

Athletes can see their TIM result every week alongside the traditional results in ResultsHQ. The athlete with the best improvement in PB (or who get closest) is ranked first, next best is second, and so on for all athletes. Read more about the TIM on the Little Athletics Australia website.

Hamersley TIM Championships

The Hamersley TIM Championships are held annually and are based on the True Inclusion Method where athetes are ranked according to how much they improve (or get close to) their PB. All U7s to U17s compete in 4 or 5 set events with points awarded according to the TIM.

Its fun competition for all age groups and levels of ability – the TIM means that everyone is in with a chance. Also a great opportunity for athletes practice their events for Zones and Centre Championships!

No need to register, just come along and be ready to compete from 8am on Saturday 1st February. You can check out the program below, but please be aware that athletes need to be there at the start as the order of events may change, expecially if the weather is hot!
