Summer League #11: Farran Forest Park TUESDAY JULY 22nd Relays, BBQ & Prize-Giving

Post date: Jul 18, 2014 12:58:24 AM

TEAMS

In the interest of fun and fairness we would ask all those who finished in the top twenty of the league to find a team mate outside the top twenty. We don't want a "packed duo" running away with the relay!!

We really would encourage everyone to come along and enjoy this fun event. If you don't have a team mate before the event don't worry as the organisers will assist with team selection/pairings on the night to ensure everyone gets a run/walk/jog or stroll.

-------------------

START TIMES

There will be a group start of all first leg runners at 18.30. We will have a briefing 5 minutes beforehand to explain everything. Please allow enough time to register or find a team mate.

We have asked for the barrier at the entrance to the park to be opened for free entry between 5.30pm and 7pm. If you arrive outside this time you will most likely have to pay the €5 entrance fee.

-------

BBQ

The BBQ will start at 7:30pm in the National Rowing Centre which is also in the park (a 50m walk from the car park).

---------

COST

Adult €5 - includes relay entry and BBQ ticket.

Child €3 - includes relay entry and BBQ ticket.

Family €10 - includes relay entry and 3 BBQ tickets.

Additional BBQ tickets can be purchased at a cost of €5 for adults and €3 for children.

Anyone who attended our BBQ in the rowing centre last year will remember how tasty the food was.

LEAGUE FINISHERS

--------------------------------

If you didn't manage to achieve one of the top places in the league don't worry all league finishers will receive a specially designed T-shirt. Similar to last year to avoid waste and ensure that you receive a T-shirt that fits you correctly we will have some sample T-shirts available at the Farran Forest Park on Tuesday for you to try on. We will then order your desired size and you can collect it at any of our Autumn League events.

So far we have over 100 league finishers check the results file to see if you are one of the lucky few. Furthermore, the following people can still qualify for a T-shirt if they run on Tuesday, so do come out and compete.
