Note from Juvenile Competition Secretary Michael Flynn (Added April 24th)

"Currently there is a rule in place that will not allow an athlete to be entered in both the discus and javelin on day 4

I am in the process of removing that rule, so if you have athletes that wish to enter both, you can do so

This will be updated during the week. I am also hoping to add a warning message to advise parents and coaches that Cork Athletics typically does not have both of these events on the same day, as we are conscious that athletes are still developing both physically, and in learning the disciplines, in particular discus for U14/15. Coaches and parents should take into account that their athletes are putting strong forces on immature muscles

If an athlete wants to enter both events please hold off for a few days

If you have parents entering athletes please pass this message on to them"
