Spectators
We're sorry to have to charge for spectator admission but unfortunately the Glasgow International Arena is very expensive!
Admission is free for athletes, U16s & coaches (holding a valid UKA licence)
Everyone else please sign up online in advance.
Once registered, please save a copy of your confirmation email as you will need to show this to gain entry to the event.
Competition kit
This is an open competition - club kit is not required, it is entirely up to the athletes what they would like to wear.
That being said, it it almost Halloween, so dressing up is encouraged (competition friendly of course)!
Spikes - GIA permits 6mm (max) in either cone, Christmas tree or pyramid spikes.
Spikes are to be worn in the competition area only, please encourage your children to take their spikes off before heading to the stand.
GIA is very strict around food and drink in the arena, so please only bring water into the infield.
Results
All track results will be hand timed.
A full copy of the results will be sent out after the meet.
The 60m, 200m & shot put will be published on Power of Ten.
Photography
We're delighted to have Graeme Brown with us to capture the day's action!
Please let us know if you do not wish for your child to be photographed.
A full album will be uploaded to the GAA facebook w/b 26th October.
Volunteers
We are looking for two volunteers per 'team'.
If you are planning on coming along to support on behalf of your club and are PVG'd as coach/volunteer please get in touch!
If you could also let your club know, that would be very much appreciated.
To enable us to easily identify athlete support, we're also asking all volunteers to wear their club colours.
Withdrawals
There's nothing worse than empty lanes, if you can no longer make it please let me know so I can shuffle the start lists to make the day as competitive as possible.
To support increasing stadium costs, we are unable to offer refunds at this time.
