Elite Sports Timing is a hard working and conscientious Sports Timing Company that uses chip timing so your race will have immediate on site results!
Elite Sports Timing is a multisport timing company featuring the RFID Race Timing System. We provide chip timing and race direction to many sporting events including 10K, 5K, half and full marathons, triathlons, biathlons, duathlons, cyling, open water swimming, adventure racing and more.
RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification and has been available to the race industry for over ten years. Using low frequency (134 kHz), small transponders can be energised to release a precoded signal to a receiving antenna. This signal is interpreted by a control module and converted to a 20 digit code. This unique code identifies the transponder as well as whatever is attached to the transponder.
We use Texas Instruments (TIRIS) RFID modules and transponders in the systems we develop for sports timing. These components have a proven track record and are used extensively in other sports timing systems around the globe. All IAAF events use the TIRIS system to time the major marathons and fun-runs of the world. The 134kHz frequency transponders are particularly well suited to sports timing since their read range is very good (up to 1.5 metres above the mats) and the antennas are well focussed so that accurate times can be recorded to within 0.1 seconds resolution.
The number of competitors able to be timed at any point is determined by the size and number of antennas in the antenna mat. Our systems are designed to be small, robust and comparatively low cost compared to the timing systems used in many world class sporting events. Transponders will last indefinetely giving many years of service. The TIRIS components have almost remained unchanged since their introduction in 1994 which demonstrates the longevity of the TIRIS system.

2007 Law Enforcement Olympics
A special thank you to all of the great men and women who competed in the cycling games of the 2007 Law Enforcement Olympics. Captain Bill Spitler, Steve Salvo, Cathy Duff and William Duff, Steve Boone - you host amazing events for Florida's finest police officers and fire fighters and it was a pleasure to serve you this summer!
The Best Timing In The World
The chip is worn on a soft neoprene strap that is wrapped around either ankle secured with a velcro strap for the most comfortable fit, no matter how long your race lasts. New users sometimes have a tendency to wear the chips as armbands, however, the most accurate read is when they are worn around the ankle. The RFID timing is the most accurate in the world and results come across immediately as an athlete passes over the timing mat. The chips can be worn in either swim, bike or run events and are ideal for multi sport.
