Event Information

Please Note

To All Athletes and Officials, please note the important event information below that will form part of your self-declaration on the day of your upcoming competition.

1. Any athlete or official that has been abroad (off the island of Ireland) must have completed 14 days of self-isolation prior to competing at the Championships. Proof of travel dates may be requested by Athletics Ireland. Note- for best practice this self-isolation requirement also applies to anyone who has travelled to green list countries.

2. Residents of Counties that are in government lockdown due to Covid19 for the Championship dates cannot travel to the event as athletes or officials. We note that some athletes or officials may be affiliated to Clubs in the Counties that are locked down but they may not reside in the County of their Club. In this case non-resident athletes or officials are eligible to attend the Championships if they do not reside in a locked down County.
