Welcome to JPodium

JPodium is a Joomla! component to manage and display sports results. The intended use is to keep track of race results for e.g. a cycling club portal. Of course it is not fixed to any kind of sports but more to a certain structure of race results. This means that every athlete has a class (e.g. age class like "Master") attached and the results are listed per race in this classes.

From cycling results to JPodium

JPodium was initially designed several years ago as a Nuke module and used for years on a portal for a cycling club. After the migration of the whole site to Joomla! it was necessary to migrate the results management as well. We could not find any component that matched our requirements and decided to make use of the old principle.

Same principle - more functionality

As Joomla! provides a feature rich framework especially in the admin backend the component has an easy-to-use interface for site admins. The databases for athletes, races, results, seasons, classes and heats can all be accessed via the backend. The frontend is in this early development stages a plain list of results. It can be shown either per race with a list of athletes divided in classes or per athlete with all results stored for the individual sportsman.
