Athletics Leinster have updated our indoor competitions booklet to reflect current guidelines. A copy of this is available here

The main changes are as follows:

  1. Given capacity restrictions, our programmes on the four days may start earlier & finish later than normal. Additionally, a number of field events may be held outdoors.
  2. While no Covid-19 certs will be required for U18s, those aged 18 and above will require Covid certification. A child u18 and younger may be accompanied by one parent/guardian. Protocols will be put in place around this and communciated to you in the coming weeks.
  3. Only 3 athletes per event in the U12-U19 age groups will qualify for All-Irelands from each region. An athlete must qualify from their region to compete. There will be no open entry for juveniles to nationals. This is a National Rule for the 2022 Indoor Season.

 

We expect to be open for registration early next week.

We thank you for your continued support.

Thanks to Athletics Wicklow, the venue for the Leinster Senior & Juvenile Uneven Ages XC on Sunday 7th November is Avondale Forest Park, Rathdrum, Co. Wicklow. This is a well known venue to many in Leinster, though the course this year is a little different to previous.
 
PLEASE NOTE:
  • The car parks in Avondale are closed during construction works, so we'll be using alternative car parks, which are located a 15 to 20 minute walk from the course, so factor that into your time to arrive at the venue;
  • To avoid congestion please try to arrive no sooner than 1 hour before your event, which will be plenty of time to collect your number and warm up;
  • There will be races for boys and girls under 9 years of age - no fee, simply go to the start line when called (11.10am for girls, 11.20am for boys), and there will be medals for the top 12 finishers in each race;
  • The Championships will commence at 11.30am with the 1,500m for girls u/11.
