EAST CORK TRACK AND FIELD CHAMPIONSHIPS

Day two of the East Cork Track and Field Championships were held on Sunday 26th June. This fixture was cancelled back in April due to adverse weather conditions. The event also had to kick-off at 9.30am because of the Euro soccer match Ireland V France. Attendance was down because of holidays also but nevertheless the full programme was completed by 12.30pm.

Many thanks to the super effort of those committee members in the preparation of the venue and to all those who helped in officiating and in the efficient running of the Championship. Thanks also to the East Cork Board committee members and to those from the other East Cork clubs who gave so much help in the officiating.

Of course well done to all those juveniles who participated so well in both the track and field events. It was great to see the juveniles enjoying their events and to see such improvement.
