St. Brigid’s Athletic Club is hosting the Geraldine Dolan Memorial Cross Country Meet on Tuesday the 3rd of October 2017, at our club grounds adjacent to the St Brigid’s GFC pitch. There will be cross country signs put up to help with directions – so please look out for them.

We intend commencing the first race at 11.00 am, with the final race set to be completed by 12.30 pm. There are races for minor girls and boys up to senior girls and boys. We will look to have all individual and team presentations completed by 1.30 pm, including the Geraldine Dolan Perpetual Cup to the best overall school.

The age groups are broken down as follows:

Minor – Under 14 on the 1st of July in the year of competition – i.e. 2017.
Junior - Under 15 on the 1st of July in the year of competition – i.e. 2017.
Intermediate - Under 17 on the 1st of July in the year of competition – i.e. 2017.
Senior - Under 19 on the 1st of July in the year of competition – i.e. 2017.

I have attached a letter of invitation for all secondary schools, along with an order of events.

Athletes must run in their own age group except in a team event where ONE athlete from the age group immediately below may complete a team. No athlete may run in more than one race.

Prizes to be presented to the first 3 individuals & first 3 teams in each race, while individual & team points will be allocated with the best overall school receiving the Geraldine Dolan Perpetual Cup.
