All athletes and coaches are asked not to turn up to train on the track this coming Monday 10th May as it is booked for the sole use of the 10,000m Track Championships. The hours it is booked are 6pm to 9pm with the first race off at 6.30pm. If you train early and complete your session at approx 6.15/20pm that will be fine, however, please make sure you are not on the track, infield, throwing areas, high jump fan or LJ pits at 6.30pm when the first race takes place.
Secondly for athletes in the 10,000m events, World Athletics and UKA rules regarding the types of shoe that can be worn on the track will be enforced. Runners/Walkers – please do not leave this until Monday evening to find out if your shoes comply. Instead – either read this 10 page shoe rules or find your shoes on this list of shoes (the second will be quicker!!!) and whether they can be used on the track. Please note – some shoes with a carbon fibre plate and 40mm thick sole can be used on the road but not on the track where a 25mm sole is the thickest allowed for races over 800m.
In short please check to ensure your footwear complies and thank you for considering and supporting us with this ruling.

Plans are in hand for the start of the IOM Track and Field League 2021, for Age Groups Under 13 and above. This is obviously subject to no restrictions being in place at the time.
Unfortunately signing on has had to be cancelled – please forward your entry forms and cheque, made out to IOMAA, to Jenny Dowling 2 Ballabridson Park Ballasalla Isle of Man IM9 2ES.
The first competition evening takes place on the 12th May, 2021.
Whilst you may sign on on the 1st competition evening, it would be helpful to the organisers and other competitors if you could post the forms to me before hand to reduce congestion on the 1st competition evening.
To allow the Track and Field League to run smoothly and to time we would ask if parents could assist for at least one evening in the season. Please see this letter from Tracey Bell and if you can help, please e-mail or phone Tracey – tblell@wm.im or 432133 .
Thank you
Jenny
