Saturday 19th May 2018

s

cottishathletics are keen to promote entries for our two special Jumps Grand Prix events over the course of the 2018 track and field season.

These are part of our first Events Specific Series and are planned in order to seek to help the development of high jump, long jump and triple jump and are looking for strong support from athletes, coaches and clubs.

The George Duncan arena in Perth and Craigswood Stadium in Livingston are the two venues – with the first event in Perth on Sunday 3 June and the second at Livingston on Sunday 9 September.

Online entries are open now for both events and it is £5 per entry. Please use the links here to the Event Section pages for Perth and Livingston to enter.

Perth on June 3

Livingston on September 9

The events run from 10am to 3.15pm on both days and there will be a graded element (which could be subject to change depending on the entries).

There is a draft timetable on the Event Section pages for June 3 and September 9. All horizontal jumps will jump with the prevailing winds on the day.
