ATHLETICS FIXTURES 2018-2019

As we get ready to start back to training next week after the Summer break, we thought we'd let you have an idea of what the year ahead entails with the most recent Athletics Fixtures list for cross-country and Track & Field events for clubs and schools.

Please remember that the dates and times are all subject to change and that we do not have dates for events like the North Connacht and Connacht Schools Cross-country or Track & Field events. Likewise, there are no dates for local, county or national community games events.

Leitrim events are in black - for our Roscommon members, as the Club is registered in Leitrim, we compete in the Leitrim Championships.

A reminder too about entries for Connacht and National events. All entries for Juvenile members MUST go through the Club - you can contact the Club Secretary John Connolly with queries.

Entries for Seniors/Masters for Connacht events must go through the Club - entries for National events can be done by the athlete themselves through the Athletics Ireland website.

All entries MUST be paid for before the completed entry form is submitted.

Finally, the best of luck to all our members racing over the next 15 months!

Athletics Ireland is committed to safeguarding children and by working under the guidance of our Safeguarding Policies our staff, both volunteers and employed, working with our young people, throughout the organisation, seek to create a safe environment for young people to grow and develop within sport. The following set of principles should be adhered to: • Importance of childhood - The importance of childhood should be understood and valued by everyone involved in sport. • Needs of the child - All children’s sport experiences should be guided by what is best for children. This means that adults should have a basic understanding of the emotional, physical and personal needs of young people. • Integrity in relationships - Adults interacting with children in sport are in a position of trust and influence. They should always ensure that children are treated with integrity and respect, and the self-esteem of young people is enhanced. • Fair Play - All children’s sport should be conducted in an atmosphere of fair play. The principles of fair play should always be emphasised, and organisers should give clear guidelines regarding acceptable standards of behaviour. • Quality atmosphere & ethos - Children’s sport should be conducted in a safe, positive and encouraging atmosphere. • Competition - Competition is an essential element of sport and should be encouraged in an age appropriate manner. A child centred ethos will help to ensure that competition and specialisation are kept in their appropriate place. • Equality - All children should be valued and treated in an equitable and fair manner regardless of ability, age, gender, religion, social and ethnic background or political persuasion. Our Child Safeguarding Statement has been developed in line with requirements under the Children First Act 2015, (the Children First: National Guidance, and Tusla’s Child Safeguarding: A Guide for Policy, Procedure and Practice).
