'WE ARE EXPLORING INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES for YOUNG ATHLETES'
Stephen Maguire's latest video blog looks at the Scotland vest opportunities in track and field in young age groups.
It is a case of 'watch this space' with the scottishathletics Director of Performance and Coaching explaining he is 'negotiating' on a couple of projects which may be pitched for U20 and U23 athletes.
We hope athletes, coaches, parents and clubs will find Stephen's latest messages interesting and informative.
