scottishathletics have issued a special ‘Thank You‘ message to our superb Officials.
The purple and red army have delivered countless track and field events in recent months including recently two very busy national championship weekends in Grangemouth.
Ayr and Dundee have also been venues for national events while there were district events at Inverness, Kilmarnock and Grangemouth,
Week in, week out this summer our Officials have made athletics in Scotland happen.
As we say often: ‘Without an Official, there is no performance recorded‘.
We know that is appreciated by the wider sport and, after a break, we will soon be asking our Officials about a Conference event in the autumn and to let us know availability for winter events – with a return to the Emirates Arena for the 4J Indoor Season.
