The final race of the McGrady Financial Services Junior XC Series is this Sunday 26th February in Tollymore Forest Park. Online registration is NOW CLOSED. There will be no on-the-day registrations. Club check-in will be open from 12 noon and will close at 12.45 SHARP so please arrive in plenty of time and dress accordingly for the weather! First race starts at 1pm. Please inform the Ranger on arrival that you are there for the XC Series and you shouldn’t have to pay for parking.
This race is organised by Newcastle Junior AC and as such we need a lot of helpers. Response for help has so far been very disappointing. We need volunteers to:
- Help mark the course
- Assist with athlete check-in
- Marshall’s for both the Primary and Secondary School Races
- 2 people at start line
- 4 people at finish line
- Someone for warm-up
- Someone to show athletes the course to run (for younger athletes)
- Photographer
- Someone to write up the race report
….. to name but a few roles!
We need these volunteers for the race to go ahead so if you can help in any way please email juniors@newcastleac.org to let us know, and if you have a preference please indicate what you’d like to do!
Training resumes in Shimna College tomorrow night at 7pm – P7 and older athletes please dress for outdoor training.
We’re hoping for a great team turn out for Tollymore on Sunday so please show your support.
