Combined Event Scoring System

All combined events are currently calculated through ResultsHQ and are based on the athletes best trial for each event using a formula (not a points table).

Under 9 – Under 12 Athletes

• Since 2022-23 with the introduction of ResultsHQ for State events, Under 9 – Under 12 age groups have used the Little Athletics NSW formulas.
• These formulas are scaled by age and gender for State championships and may not be suitable for Centre combined events due to minimum standards which results in “0” points.
• There are no minimum points for an event.
• The NSW formulas are similar, but not exactly the same as points scored for events prior to season 2022-23 which used a points table system.

Under 13 – Under 15 Athletes

• These age groups use the standard IAAF formulas for Combined Events, these are the same formulas as used for men and women in World Athletics.
• LATas has used this calculation method for several years for these age groups for State championships.

Further information regarding the Combned Event Championships scoring system are available on the LATas website.
