What about the newsletter?
Many have become accustomed to MastersRankings’ monthly newsletter and it has evolved with your feedback and requests. Don’t worry, it won’t go away! The features you’ve requested will continue:
- Meet Promotions – Information you may not have known about competitions including special facets worth considering participation.
- By the Numbers* – Summarizing performances inserted into the rankings lets us all know how much we get done every month.
- Sample of Complete Meet Results Added* – Links to performances in the rankings from complete meet results that have been inserted.
- Ranked Athlete Spotlight – Articles about athletes, many times written completely by the athletes.
- Recent Noteworthy Performances* – Sampling of recently inserted performances complete with links to Athlete’s profile, meet results and rankings lists.
- General news about the rankings
Items tagged with an asterisks will be done monthly. Meet promotions will be done more frequently so you can plan accordingly. Athlete Spotlights will be done regularly – 2 per region per year doesn’t seem like enough. You’ve mentioned several times that reports on rankings are too general so separating from other features and reporting periodically allow for more information and focusing on the subject.
