How do the Leagues work?

 

The T&F Leagues are a Dublin only Competition for U10 – U16 Age Groups.

 

Medals will be awarded on the day for U10s & U11s as this is a T&F Competition.

 

For U12 – U16 Age Groups points are awarded to the top six athletes in each event.  The top 6 athletes with the highest points accumulated over the three Leagues will receive awards - Trophies to 1st, 2nd & 3rd place and Medals to 4th, 5th & 6th place.

 

So the more events you enter – the more opportunities you have of accumulating points! 

 

Points are awarded to the top 6 athletes in each event as follows:

 

1st           7 points

2nd          5 points

3rd          4 points

4th          3 points

5th          2 points

6th          1 point

 

The Leagues are a relaxed introduction to T&F Competitions.  They are a great opportunity for athletes to try new events and to get some competition experience (and practice) before the upcoming Dublin Juvenile T&F Championships in May and June. We would encourage all athletes to come along and enter as many events as possible.

 

Please arrive at least 1 hour before your scheduled event, remember times are approximate and events can start up to 45 minutes earlier than scheduled. 

 

Volunteer Officials – (NO experience required!)

 

As with all events it is a condition of the Dublin Athletics Board Juvenile Competition Committee that all Clubs provide officials – without volunteers and officials - these competitions cannot take place.

To ensure our coaches can prepare and assist their athletes we look to parents to help when required and aim to schedule volunteers on a rota basis throughout the day to share the load. 

 

There are a number of parents who step up regularly - for which we are most appreciative - however we would like to invite those that have not volunteered before to also come forward

 

Please let us know when you are available - there is no prior experience required – it is a great way to learn more about the different events and give back to the athletics community.

 

As always we endeavour to minimise time officiating by spreading the work among many – it is much appreciated if you could make yourself available if asked to help on the day if we are asked to provide additional volunteers.

 

Notes:

  • Club singlets must be worn (singlets will NOT be on sale on the day)

  • An athlete cannot step up or down an age in any event (except U9 born 2018 can step up to compete with U10s).

  • Track events  – Short Sprints will be decided on Heats/Semi-finals/Finals, all other races will be decided on time.

  • Field events – 3 throws/jumps per athlete

  • All competing athletes must be currently registered with AAI for 2026.

  • In the event of contests clashing, officials will show flexibility, ie if a competitor is involved in long jump contest and a track event/other field event is called, he/she will be facilitated to participate in both, but must inform the official(s).

 

The programmes and event orders are subject to change to facilitate the smooth running to the competition.
