FVL Availability - Sat 18 Apr
28 March 2015
The first round of the Forth Valley League takes place at Grangemouth Stadium on Saturday 18th April.
This year the club have entered a second team in the league, so that every athlete in the club has the opportunity to compete in the Forth Valley League. For any new members, the Forth Valley League is an ideal introduction to league competition.
The "A" team compete in Division 1 which is the morning match at the first round between 9.45 AM and 12.45 PM, and the "B" team will join the league in Division 3 which is the afternoon match from 1.45 PM to approximately 4.45 PM. Athletes should be at the venue 1 hour before their match starts.
At the second round on Saturday 16th May, the Division 1 match will be in the afternoon and the Division 3 match is in the morning. The league final on Saturday 27th June is a full day match for both teams.
Availability
All club members from U11 (aged 9+) to U15 (under 15 on 31/08/2000) are eligible and expected to compete in this league. The age categories are U11, U13 and U15.
Please use the availability form to let to let us know if you're available or not for this match. For league matches, availability forms should always be submitted, even if you are not available!
The last date to confirm availability is midnight on Sunday 12th April.
Selection
The teams are selected jointly by a group of volunteers and will be announced on the Wednesday before the competition.
As this is a half-day team competition with only 2 places per event per club, athletes will usually only be doing 1 or 2 events, and may not be doing their favourite event!
At league matches, the emphasis is on participation and competing as a part of a team, with all selected club members expected to take part.
The points scoring system means that it's important that we have competitors in all events at a match. Athletes that do an event for the first time "to get a point" are just as important a part of the team as the athletes that win events.
