Grangemouth
The 2024 track and field season is in full swing and thoughts will soon inevitably start to turn towards National Championships to come.
We are at Grangemouth this year over two weekends in August and we would love to see really big entry numbers.
The 4J Age Group Champs will take place over the weekend of Saturday 10 August and Sunday 11 August at Grangemouth.
And entries have now opened for the U15 Champs on the Saturday, the U13s on the Sunday and the U20 programme which is split over the two days.
Entries close at 5pm on Thursday 25 July
Enter U15s on Saturday 10 August
Enter U20 events on Saturday and Sunday
Enter U13 Champs on Sunday 11 August

Scottish National Championship medals are up for grabs that weekend and we know athletes, coaches and clubs will be targeting August 10/11.
Competition is what you train for and Grangemouth can be the stage for a PB, a place in the final or even making the podium and landing a medal to cherish.
As folk across the sport are aware, the Grangemouth facility is under threat of closure because of impending budget cuts at Falkirk Council.
The fight to save the venue is ongoing and it will be helpful this summer if the importance of Grangemouth as a venue for national championships is emphasised.
That’s another good reason why we would love to see really big numbers in terms of event entries for the 4J Age Groups on August 10/11.
