The CAAC T&F Championships will be held on Sunday 31st Aug, 10am at Saughton Sports Enclosure. All club members are encouraged to take part, either by competing or by helping out on the day! Extra helpers especially welcome!
Entries, Format & Scoring
Entries can be accepted on the day, but to help us organise things please register by Aug 24th via this link This is a free event, but we would welcome donations of food etc to go to the Community One Stop Shop Broomhouse – more details to come.
The competition consists of four events for each age group (apart from U9’s who have three events) these are:
- U9 : 60 m, LJ, Quoit Throw.
- U11: 100m, 600m, LJ, Quoit Throw.
- FR: 100m, 400m, Push. Throw
- U13 : 200m, 800m, SP, HJ
- U15 : 200m, 800m, HJ, SP
- U17 & U20: 200m, 1 mile, LJ, SP
- Sen, Masters: 200m, 1 mile, LJ, SP
The scores will be calculated on the position of each athlete in each event. The winner in each age group and gender will be the athlete with the lowest score from all three events. Example: If you finish 1st 3rd and 5th in your events, your score will be (1+3+5) = 9 points.
One penalty point more than the total number of competitors in that competition group will be awarded to athletes who fail any event (e.g. you do not finish in an event, and there were 10 athletes in total, you would have 11 pts). If more than one did not finish that event, each would score 11 points.
