The Scottish East District Championships take place on the weekend of Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 May at Grangemouth Stadium.
For athletes who have been competing regularly in other events, this is a chance to test yourself against the best athletes in the East of Scotland!
Entry Standards
For Scottish Championships, the club will submit entries and will pay the entry fees for athletes for up to 2 events, subject to a few conditions.
Athletes should have been competing already this season and have met or be close to the club's minimum entry standard.
The entry standards are a guide for parents/coaches when deciding whether to enter an athlete, to ensure that Scottish Championships are an appropriate level of competition for the athlete.
Events
A provisional timetable and event listing are available below.
As this is a Scottish level event with potentially multiple heats and rounds, at which athletes should be focussing on competing in their strongest events and giving their best possible performance, athletes are limited to a maximum of 3 events.
Some events are on at the same time, so please check the provisional timetable when considering what events to enter.
If you are unsure about events, please discuss entry with your coach at training.
Parent Helpers
Scottish Athletics have requested that each club provides three volunteers to assist the officials at this event.
Please add a note to the availability form if you can help.

Under 20/Seniors
Unfortunately Scottish Athletics are not providing District Championships for Under 20 or Senior athletes now.
They are instead offering an Open Meeting series on the same weekend for Under 20 and Senior athletes, with sprints and jumps at Kilmarnock and endurance and throws at Grangemouth.
Under 20 and Senior athletes wishing to compete in the Scottish Athletics Open Meeting should enter themselves via the Scottish Athletics website.
