Dear Club Secretary,

The Irish Life Health National Senior Track & Field Championships are being held in Morton Stadium, Santry on the 28th & 29thof July.

Athletics Ireland are inviting club members to the Championships on Sunday the 29th of July Free of Charge.

The Track and Field competition starts at 14:40 and we would love to see a crowd from your club there to support our established international athletes, rising stars and the country’s best club athletes compete for medals, PB’s and national titles.

Thomas Barr, Phil Healy, Mark English, Ciara Mageean and Sommer Lecky are just some of the athletes that will be competing on home soil before they head off to the European Championships in Berlin. In a new initiative Juvenile athletes (U12 and U14) will be given the opportunity to race on the very same track as their heroes’ in a 4x100m club mixed relay event.

Children can also avail of face painting, Irish Life Health Goodie bags and meet the Stars of Irish Athletics throughout the day. The event will go Live on RTÉ from 17:30.

Please encourage your members to attend on this momentous occasion where we will also be recognising the achievements of our recent European U18 and World U20 Championship Medallist’s.

If you could email me your postal address, the number of members from your club that would like to attend, and the number of teams you would like to enter for the juvenile relays, I will post out your complimentary tickets for the event!

This is a day not to be missed!
