Athletics Application Research

Floyd Technologies has partnered with Cambridge Harriers Athletics Club to research a prototype athletics application. The application aims to helps club leadership, coaches, team managers, and athletes’ parents/carers to achieve more through technology.

The application is currently in the product design stage and we are actively consulting stakeholders to define and prioritise requirements. In parallel, we are researching application design, technologies and architectures.

Our focus remains firmly on our paid client and contract work with the Athletics Application being a long-term project. However, we are also seeking interested parties to fund and support its development.

Aims

The application will deliver value by:

  • Improving efficiency – saving both time and resources.
  • Enabling value-focused, data-informed decisions.
  • Helping athletes reach their full potential.
  • Centralising communication.
  • Strengthening data protection and governance.

Features

Features Under Consideration

  • Team selection and paperwork generation.
  • Club membership management.
  • A communication module.
  • AI-powered data insights.

Technical Design Principles

The application will be built following best practices—planning for quality while prototyping rapidly to gather early stakeholder feedback. Key methodologies and principles include:

  • Privacy by design
  • Zero Trust security
  • Scalability by design
  • Domain-Driven Design (DDD)
  • Event-Driven Architecture (EDA)
  • Relevant aspects of the Twelve-Factor App methodology principles
