Following changes to Munster Competition Regulations, it is no longer a requirement to nominate County Teams. Team positions are now calculated based on 'First Past The Post', i.e. In the Novice Mens event, the first six Cork men will be deemed to comprise the Cork team, and in the Womens event, the first four Cork women will form the team.
Start Lists for Munster Novice, Under 23 and Juvenile Even-Age Cross-Country, Sunday October 23rd 2016
While entries have closed, it remains to be seen if the published list is the final one.
There are 105 entries in the Novice & Under-23 Womens Championship, with all six Munster counties represented. Hosts Cork, with 56, have the most entries, followed by Tipperary (17), with Kerry close behind, on 16. Clare have nine entries, Waterford five and Limerick have two.
There are 134 entries in the Mens Championships, however only four counties are represented; Cork, Kerry, Tipperary and Waterford. Cork, again, with 85, have the highest entry, followed by Tipperary with 21, Waterford 16 and Kerry with 12.

Ninety (90) athletes have registered so far. All athletes must sign in with Munster Juvenile PRO, Aisling Hoey, BEFORE 1pm, on Saturday, so please allow additional time for that.
The Performance Squad session will run from 1pm to 3pm, and will cover all events.
Please note that this squad is for invited athletes only. All Performance Squad athletes should bring their own throwing implements if possible.
Sports Psychologist Canice Kennedy will give a talk, at 3pm, after the Squad session, upstairs in the Red Brick Building beside the stand. His presentation will introduce sport psychology and the importance of mental preparation for competition. Definitely worth attending.
The Cork City Sports Athlete of the Month Award is sponsored by 96FM/C103FM, The Evening Echo and The River Lee
