Day 1 Schedule
A record 1,460 athletes have been entered for Day 1 of Cork Athletics Juvenile T&F Championships 2018
As a result, there will be a considerable number of heats in many events, therefore it is critical that clubs and coaches ensure that their athletes are ready and available for their particular events.
- Please Note that events will NOT be held up for missing or late athletes. This is particularly important where athletes are competing in several events simultaneously, i.e. track events and field events that are going on at the same time. For example, in the high jump, athletes who are missing for a particular height, will NOT have the bar lowered on their return.
The Co-Operation of everyone, Athletes, Officials and Clubs is absolutely vital for smooth and efficient progress on the day
Safety Matters
- All persons using cameras MUST register at the gate, when entering CIT Track
- Only designated officials and athletes are permitted in the infield areas
- NB Frequently children can be seen hanging out of fences and elevated railings adjacent to stairwells - this highly dangerous and will not be tolerated
- Clubs and parents MUST ensure that their athletes do not engage in unsafe activities
As we have a record entry of nearly 1,500 athletes, it is critical that events start on time. Therefore, can all nominated club officials/helpers please report to competition Secretary, in the (red-brick) office before 10 :15am, to ensure that events are under way by 10:30am
In order that events start on time, warm up is not permitted on the track .
