National Inter Club & Mixed Cross Country Relay Championships 2024

Abbotstown Cross Country Course

Sunday 13th October 2024

 

The National Juvenile Inter Club Relays (U11/U13/U15 Age Groups) and National Juvenile Mixed Relays (U12/U14/U17 Age Groups) will be held on Sunday 13th October at Abbottstown Cross Country Course commencing at 11am.

 

For the first time these Championships are being held separately to the Dublin Championships to allow Dublin Clubs an opportunity to participate fully in the National Championships and we look forward to fielding teams across all age groups.

 

Relays are a Team Event!

As always, relay teams are selected by coaches.  If you’re selected and commit to a relay team, please ensure you make yourself available on the day of the competition.  It is a team event and if an athlete withdraws at the last minute, their teammates are unlikely to be able to compete.  PLEASE DO NOT COMMIT IF YOU’RE NOT AVAILABLE.

 

Coaches are currently busy organising teams for the day – please let your coach know if your athlete is interested in being considered and available to take part by Monday 30th September.

 

Athletes may move up one age group and U10 athletes may take part in U11 Relays.

 

Athletes may only take part in one relay on the day.
