A new competition for Harmeny. Based at the Emirates Stadium in Glasgow.
What is this league?
This is an indoor Winter league.
Age groups are U11, U13, U15, U17 & U20 and each of these form a mini team for girls and boys at each group. ie. U11 girls are a separate team from U11 boys and so forth.
Points are awarded like cross country–athlete in 1st position gets one point, 2nd two points etc.
So the team with lowest match points on day is awarded max 15 league points, second team gets 14 points and so on down to 1 point.
Events are mainly the usual indoor ones but vary in number depending on age group. e.g.
U11’s compete in 60m, 600m and standing long jump.
U13’s compete in 60m, 60m hurdles, 200m, 800m, high jump, long jump and shot putt.
There is only one athlete for each event (unlike other leagues where there is an A and a B string.) The exception here is under 11’s as there are only 3 events.
On the day of the league final they also hold relays (4 x 200m) for all age groups and medals are available here too.
