Rebecca McEvoy, Cork Athletics PRO writes:

"Round 1 of the John Buckley Sports Graded Track and Field Leagues is coming up on Wednesday 18th April.

This League is a series of track and field meets, graded to suit athletes of all levels of ability. There will be four meets over the summer months (18th April, 31st May, 25th June and 30th July). Each meet will feature different events, and these events will be graded, to cater for different standards, from track-beginners who want to try their hand at track, and field events for the first time, to high-standard fields for experienced track athletes.

The first meet, on 18th April, features 100m, 400m and Mile races on the track, as well as Long Jump and Shot Put. Entry is just €5 on the night, with field events beginning at 7:30pm and track events at 7:45pm.
