Clubs urged to give names for Tru Wealth National Road Relays

Tuesday 8th March 2022

Hundreds of athletes will return to Livingston for the Tru Wealth National Road Relays on Saturday 26 March.

This event had to be cancelled in 2020 when Covid first broke out and there was also no racing at this time of year in 2021.

So we’re thrilled at a return for a hugely-popular event for U20/Senior/Masters athletes to contest medals in the Tru Wealth National Road Relays.

Entries are made by clubs via their online portal and we need those by midnight on Thursday, please (Thursday 10 March).

New Entry Process for 2022:

Clubs are required to separately enter in advance any Masters teams from Senior teams.

This is to simplify the registration process for team managers on the day and to aid the identification of Masters teams during the event.

Championship Races:

Senior Men 6 Stage Relay; M40+ 6 Stage Relay; M50+ 4 Stage Relay

Senior Women 4 Stage Relay; W40+ 4 Stage Relay; W50+ 3 Stage Relay

Important Information for Team Entries:

*Athletes who compete in a scottishathletics championship MUST be current members of scottishathletics on the day of the race at the point of entry.

Athletes with an expired or expiring membership on the day of the race will not be eligible for selection. Athletes without a valid membership or out of date membership cannot be added after the closing date.

*All Masters teams must be entered in advance. Thus a team cannot become a Masters team on the day of the event.

*Any registered athlete will be eligible for selection in teams of a younger age range.

*An athlete may only represent one team in competition.
