Munster Intermediate Cross Country Championships...Sun 7th Nov 2010

Charleville Hosts Munster Championship


On Sunday next, the 7th of November, the North Cork AC will host the Munster Juvenile Uneven age and Intermediate Cross Country Championships at the Charleville Showgrounds at 12 noon. The juvenile races for club athletes ranging from Under 9 to Under 19 will be first off with the adult races to follow where there are large fields of competitors expected. The event is open to spectators from the public with an admission fee of 5 Euro for Adults and 2 Euro per child.

There has been a significant increase in numbers joining athletics clubs in the last year or so from around Munster at all ages and thus a similar increase has been seen in athletes competing at these events at all levels, from county to national championships. There is expected to be up to 1500 people attending the race on Sunday so it will be a great spectator event as well as a great event to take part in.
