To All Stakeholders,

We are very conscious that our membership is anxious to return to training and competition when the Government allows us to exit the current Level 5 lockdown. We continue to discuss and lobby for a return for athletics on a weekly basis with representatives of the Sport Ireland Expert Group and other key decision makers. We do note that in the recently released Resilience and Recovery Covid19 document attached that there is provision for a return to activity for outdoor, non-contact training in pods of 15 at Level 4. We see this a s a very positive development for our sport.

We greatly appreciate the patience you have all shown during these pandemic times and we commit to regular, transparent communication with our stakeholders. We will share any developments on the re-opening of sport from the Sport Ireland Expert Group as we receive them. https://www.athleticsireland.ie/about/COVID-19

Late February early March normally comes with great excitement as after months of training sees our athletes head to Athlone or NIA Indoor Arena to compete in the Athletics Leinster Championships, it’s not to be this year but fingers crossed we won’t have to wait too much longer to get back to what we love to do, here are some memories over the last few years……
