All Events under UK: Athletics Rules

Given the huge popularity of our Open Graded Meetings we feel it will be impossible to maintain social disancing and remain fully compliant with the regulations required to maintain a Covid-secure environment, we will therefore not be resuming these meetings until after Step 4 of the EA Roadmap has been reached on the 21st June with the first meeting being on Wednesday 30th June, entries will open on 3rd June.

Please note that the fixture dates are currently provisional and that event start times are approximate.

Entry costs at Wednesday Open Graded Meetings are £7.00 for one event and £5.00 for each additional event.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ENTRIES FOR 2021 ARE ONLINE ONLY AND NO ENTRIES WILL BE ALLOWED ON THE DAY.

We regret we are not able to offer refunds for online entries as we still have to pay for the administration costs.

Please note that if no estimated times are given the entrant will be put into the slowest race and we cannot change this on the day of the meeting. 

Only athletes with a valid England Athletics registration may enter.

All events are mixed gender, except occasional higher standard middle distance races.

Under 13s (School Years 7 & 6) may only compete in those events allowed by UK Athletics rules – Not 400m nor 3000m nor Triple Jump.

Under 11s cannot compete at Wednesday night Open Graded Meetings – That is those children in Schools Years 5 and below.

Collection of numbers from 5.30pm. There may be separate desks for different events.  

Please note that you MUST register 30 minutes before the start of the event, NOT the time you anticipate you will be running, we cannot seed you if you haven’t registered.
