Our Junior Track and Field section consists of 'Club Nights' that are run each Monday evening from mid-October through to the end of March the next calendar year. We cater to ages from "as soon as they can walk" up to 14 year olds.
We can also cater to U16's and U18's. Please enquire with a comittee member.
What are Club Nights?
Club Nights are our internal competition for points within age grades. They are also where our young athletes learn athletic events while competing with their friends and grade members.
Grades
Our grades are organised into "Junior" "Intermediate" and "Senior" as follows:
| Juniors: | Intermediate | Senior | Mighty Mini's (under 4's) |
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| The Mighty Mini's are their own grade for girls and boys under 4. The Mighty Mini's are not part of the Junior grades as such and the Mighty Mini's are a fully 'parent' run grade. |
