Championship Trophy Returns

IMPORTANT  MESSAGE

2 Weeks ago i emailed all the trophy winners asking them to return there trophies to me no later than Thursday 4th Oct the day before the presentation Disco which was ample time to get them engraved, these trophies ware due to  be handed out to possible other winner, up to now i have had 2 reply’s, I did ask on my email to respond to the email but only a few did this, If you have not had the trophy engraved by now it will be to late now i now need these trophies back asap, it would be very unfair to not have the trophies back for Friday to hand out. and very embarrassing  for all involved,

Scottish Age Group Championships

The Scottish Age Group Championships are on this weekend (25/26 August) at Grangemouth Stadium. As was the procedure for the results at the recent Scottish Schools’ Championships, can any athlete, or parent/coach of an athlete who would like their result posted on the club website, and sent to the Advertiser, please send their result to me by 8pm on Sunday 26th August?

Shouting across the track on a Monday night at training that a result has been ‘missed’ from the website list is of no use, as by then the Advertiser print deadline has passed. This means that the result has not been ‘missed’, but has in fact not been received.

Any photographs would also be appreciated.

Thanks

Gordon
