Changelog

Release notes and product updates for AtleetIQ. New features, improvements, and fixes for the track & field management platform.

One team, one score, one export

The meet page now shows what a team is predicted to score, where the points come from, and which categories rest on a single athlete.

Picking the team was the hard part, and it works. Reading the answer was still work, so the meet page has been rebuilt around the three questions a coach actually asks: what does this team score, is it legal, and can I send it.

Where the points come from

The predicted score now leads, with a line per category underneath it: what Sprints is worth, what Throws is worth, the average behind each, and how many entries the rules ask for by name. Below that, the best of what is left, and anything entered past the number the meet scores, shown greyed because it adds nothing.

One correction is in here that changed the number on screen. The meet scores the best twenty-four entries that fall within the criteria, not everything a team enters. The page was adding up all twenty-eight. It now shows what will actually be awarded, which is a smaller and more useful number.

Where you have no backup

New, and the thing most likely to save a coach's meet. If only one athlete in the entered team can cover the long distance places, you are told before entries close rather than on the morning they do not arrive. It counts the fourteen athletes you have entered, because on the day those are all you have, and it names who each thin category rests on.

It never tells you who to enter instead. It says what the risk is and what covering it would cost, and the trade is yours.

A relay score you type

The meet asks for a relay and AtleetIQ does not pick one, so a coach can now put their own projected relay score into the team total. It updates as you type.

The export lives with the lock

Copy rows and CSV used to appear in three places on one screen. They are now in one: beside the button that locks the team, which is the moment a coach leaves for the spreadsheet. An unlocked team says so, rather than showing empty space.

A parent can see their own child's report

A guardian gets a link, lands on their child's results, and reaches every report from one page. Nobody else's child is ever on it.

A coach assesses an athlete and the result lands in the app. The person who most wants to see it is the child's parent, and until now the only way to show them was a screenshot in a WhatsApp group.

A guardian now receives a link, follows it, and is looking at their child's report. If they have more than one child in the squad, they land on a page listing all of them and can reach every report from there.

Built for the way a parent actually reads it

On a phone, standing up, some time on Monday. So it opens on the child rather than on a menu, it says what the numbers mean in plain sentences before it shows any of them, and there is always a way back off whatever screen you are on.

One family, and only one

This is the part worth being explicit about, because it is somebody's child. A guardian sees the athletes they are linked to and nothing else. That is enforced in the database itself rather than by the screens, and there is a test in the build that walks every tool as a parent and fails if any of them ever returns another family's row. It runs on every change.

Team Manager, and the end of the entry-sheet evening

One roster of season bests for your whole squad, a meet picked from it, and the entry sheet in the organiser's own columns. Free, no card.

Every school does the same thing before a meet. Someone opens last year's spreadsheet, retypes the squad, hunts for season bests in a WhatsApp thread, and builds a team by hand at the kitchen table. Then the organiser's form arrives with its own column names and it all gets typed a second time.

Team Manager is the whole of that, done once.

One roster, not one spreadsheet per meet

Paste the file you already keep, in whatever shape it is in. Athletes and events are matched for you, and the best mark per athlete per event is what you keep. It reads Afrikaans headers, event names written in words, and a South African dd/mm/yyyy date without guessing at the American order.

What it will not do is guess at a missing birthday. Without one an athlete cannot be placed in an age group, so the roster says plainly who cannot be entered yet and lets you fix them in the same screen rather than finding out on entry day.

The team is worked out, not filled in

Set the meet's rules once: how many sprints, throws, distance runners and jumpers, how many athletes, how many events each, which birth years are eligible. Those choices are tied together in a way a sorted list cannot see. An athlete you use twice cannot take a third event, and your best sprinter may be worth more to you in the hurdles.

So the whole team is weighed at once rather than event by event, and you get the highest-scoring legal one. Swap anyone and it is worked out again around your choice, and you are told what the swap cost in points. The decision stays yours.

The entry sheet, in their columns

Your team in the organiser's own column names and spelling. Copy the rows and paste them straight into their workbook. No retyping and no reformatting.

Free, and no card

Team Manager is free for organisers and there is nothing to enter to start. Bring your squad and last season's results in one file and you can see your team before you commit to anything.

A drill library that speaks track, not gym

Build your own exercise library. Your names, your cues, your groups, and which movement is a harder version of which.

Every strength app has an exercise library. They are built for a gym, where an exercise is sets, reps and load. Track has drills that are technical rather than loaded, measured in metres and ground contacts, and carrying a cue about position.

So you build yours.

What shipped

  • Add an exercise with the cue you actually say. One line, one exercise. The cue lives on the movement, not on a prescription, so you fix a wording once.
  • Your own categories, nested as deep as you think. Sprint drills. Strength, then Upper body. Whatever your system calls them.
  • Progressions as a web, not a ladder. A push-up can be the easier version of a bench press and of a dip. Say it once and it reads correctly from both ends.
  • A club shelf. Your assistant coach sees the same library you do, and another club sees none of it. You also keep a private shelf nobody else reads.
  • Forty exercises to start from. Copy the ones you want onto your shelf and rewrite them in your words. The originals stay put.
  • Nothing is ever destroyed. Archive an exercise and it leaves your pickers. Every session that already used it keeps the name.

What is deliberately not here

No exercise tells you who should do it. The library holds movements, cues and how they relate. Choosing what an athlete does is coaching, and that stays yours.

Video upload is not here either. Paste a link to a demo clip for now.

Founding-coach beta

The sprint tools are live for a small group of coaches. S-MAS assessment and kinogram capture, free while we build it with them.

AtleetIQ is open to a small group of founding coaches. It does two things properly rather than many things badly.

What shipped

  • S-MAS. Film a max-velocity sprint on your phone, mark the five kinogram positions per leg, answer 12 yes/no checks, and get a score out of 12 per limb against Bramah's published benchmark bands. The report shows which domain carried the most faults, every individual check, and how the athlete has moved across sessions.
  • Kinogram. Capture the five max-velocity positions on their own, with overlay guides, and share a branded report card.
  • Two-run capture. The tool asks whether you filmed both sides. One camera cannot see both legs equally; the far leg is hidden behind the near one. Filming a run each way gives each leg its own clear view, and if you only have one clip the report says which leg was further from the camera.
  • Roster. Athletes and teams, and you can add an athlete mid-assessment.

What is deliberately not here

The report describes what was observed and stops there. It does not tell you what to train. Nothing in the published S-MAS work ranks domains or limbs by training priority, so a tool that did would be inventing authority it has not earned. That is your call as the coach.

Meet management, workout building and athlete gamification are not in the product.

Corrected 2026-09-10. Two of those three shipped after this was written. Team Manager went live with a roster, season bests, meet team selection and entry export, and the programme builder went live on 31 August with a calendar, a session editor and one tap to send the week to a WhatsApp group. Athlete-facing gamification is still not in the product and is not planned.

The sentence is left visible rather than deleted because this is a dated entry, and a changelog that quietly edits itself is not a record.

What it costs

Nothing during the beta, and there is no billing in the app. Pricing lands at public launch; founding coaches keep a standing discount for their first six months.
