Records update

If you visit the LAA website and go to the records section you will see it has been updated. This is always an ongoing process, and one that you can actively participate in if you believe that you have claim to a county record.
Records for U13s, U15s and U17s, along with the championship best performances for these age groups and historic veteran CBP (prior to using specific age bands), can be found on a sheet of archived records. These can still be queried, of course, and amended if proven necessary.
There is also the 'current' sheet which now has the male and female records and CBPs for the county all in one place.

U14, U16 and U18 records will be reviewed and updated later this season. As you can imagine they are frequently changing currently with all being new this season!

There is also a link to a form you can complete if you believe you have a new record.

Capes is the most capped British male athlete of ALL-TIME, receiving 67 International caps and earning 35 wins, not including a further 35 caps for England.

He is a winner of 17 national titles, including being seven times a winner of the AAA championship and three times UK champion.

1980 was the year Capes threw the longest distance of his career, 21.68 metres (71 ft 2 in), in Cwmbran, on 18 May 1980, being a new Commonwealth and British record.

In 1983 he was voted Britain's best-ever field athlete. Capes' 1980 British record still stands.

To say these achievements are remarkable would be understating them, but, this doesn't even begin to explain the life and career that Geoff had.

We'll try to do his unbelievable feats justice in time and share some wonderful memories with you all on this sad day.

RIP Geoff.

We are immensely saddened to hear and learn of Geoff Capes' passing this evening.

Our deepest sympathies from everyone at Lincolnshire Athletics goes out to Geoff's family at this time.

We will be sharing some memories of this great man in due course, and we invite you to tell us the incredible stories you may have, too.

Please, join us in remembering Geoff, forever our Worlds Strongest Man.

Geoff Capes - 23/08/1949 - 23/10/24 🤍

Can anyone help ?
We would like to buy an EDM kit (electronic distance measurement). This along with electronic timing is becoming the norm and is often a requirement in certain competitions. We have the opportunity to purchase a second kit, although these are still pricey. Are there any companies out there who would like to sponsor Lincs Athletics ?
Even a relatively small gesture would take the sting out of getting one.
We're also looking to buy a new gazebo for the xc season. Our tent is no longer fit for purpose.
Maybe get your companies name printed on it.
