Event Entries

The JustGo event entry system links your membership details to your event registrations, allowing you to manage both in the same place. Below is a quick guide to entering an event, as well as answers to some frequently asked questions.

5 Steps to Entering an Event as an Athlete

1. Log in to your JustGo account. This is also where you manage your scottishathletics membership. Do not create a new account if you are already a member of scottishathletics – you already have one!

2. Make sure your membership is up to date, and remains valid until after the event date. Renew your membership if it has expired or will expire before the competition you plan to compete in.

3. Click on the ‘Events and Courses’ tab at the top of your homepage. Find the event you want to enter and click on it.

4. Read the event information, and then scroll down to the tickets list. Complete the entry form and submit your payment online.

5. Check your inbox for your confirmation e-mail. If you do not receive your confirmation e-mail soon after booking, please contact events@scottishathletics.org.uk

Clubs can also enter athletes via their JustGo portal. Team Managers wishing to enter athletes on behalf of their club should contact their Club Secretary for details of how to submit a club entry.

I don’t know my log-in details to access my account

In most cases, your username will be your membership number or the e-mail address you used to register as a member. There is a ‘Forgot password’ link available on the log-in page if you need to reset your password. If you are still stuck, please e-mail membership@scottishathletics.org.uk for assistance. Alternatively, clubs can submit entries on behalf of their members through their own portal for the majority of scottishathletics events. If you are unable to enter individually, try contacting your club secretary or team manager, as they may be able to submit your entry for you. Please note club entries are not available for all events, and may close at a different time to individual entries for some events. If you are experiencing log-in issues that mean you cannot enter an event prior to the closing date, please ensure that you also e-mail the Competitions Team on events@scottishathletics.org.uk. Requests for late entries submitted after the closing date will not be accepted, but we will be able to assist if you contact us prior to the closing date. We encourage all athletes not to leave submitting their entries until the day entries close!

My membership number isn’t accepted

If the ticket you are looking to purchase shows ‘Ticket is not purchasable’ this may mean there is no valid membership on your account.

  • This may mean that your membership has expired or will expire before the event – if so, return to step 2 above and renew before completing your entry.
  • This could also mean that you have created a new account instead of logging in to the account linked to your existing membership – if so, return to step 1 above and log in to your original membership account.
  • If you are not a member of scottishathletics, but wish to enter an event under your membership to another governing body, please ensure that you have provided a membership number during the JustGo sign up process.

I am told I have no eligible athletes

If you are told that you have no eligible athletes to enter, make sure you have club administrator rights for your club.  These are provided by your Club Secretary, and will allow you to complete a club entry.

I have been added to a waiting list. What happens next?

After entries have closed, the Competitions Team will calculate whether additional spaces are available in any of the wait-listed events. This may be due to cancellations we have been notified of; lower entries in another event creating additional space in the timetable; or for any other reason. Athletes on the waiting list will be contacted by e-mail if spaces become available. You are not charged any entry fee if placed on a waiting list, but will be expected to pay the standard entry fee to book your place should a space become available.

The system won’t accept my PB 

Please check that the PB information you have entered is in the same format as shown in the prompt.

  • For sprint or field events such as 200m or long jump, this should contain a dot: 21.19 or 7.52
  • For longer events, such as 800m, include a colon and a dot: 1:51.12

My club isn’t listed on the drop-down

Unfortunately, we are unable to list all clubs in the world, so if you are representing a club from outside of Scotland, there is a chance your club may not be listed. If you cannot see your club on the list, please select ‘Other’ and drop us an e-mail at events@scottishathletics.org.uk so we can add your club to your entry after it has been submitted. Please do not exit the form from this page, as we will only be able to amend completed entries and your place will not be confirmed unless you have completed the full checkout process.

I can’t check out because there is something in my basket

If you are told that there is something in your basket, you have either begun an event entry or membership renewal and closed your browser before checking out. You can empty your basket from the homepage by clicking on the basket icon in the blue banner across the top of the screen. You will need to exit the entry form in order to do this, and will then be able to start your entry again.

My card payment lost connection/did not complete the transation. I have tried to enter again but I am told I have already entered. What do I do?

If you lose connection whilst checking out or close the page for any reason, your booking is unlikely to be confirmed. It will only be confirmed if you receive your confirmation e-mail. Once your basket has reset, you will be able to begin your booking again.

Club Entries – Relays

Track Relays
Clubs are required to enter a minimum of one eligible athlete at the time of entry, but will have their full membership available for selection on the day.  Team declarations will be made online and will be available during the week leading up to the championships. All club athletes with a valid scottishathletics membership will be available for selection on the day. It is the athlete’s own responsibility to ensure that both their club and scottishathletics memberships are up to date to ensure they are eligible to be selected on the day.
