Scottish National Joint League, 13 April 2025, Kilmarnock

The Scottish National Joint League provides quality Track and Field Competition for Under 17, Under 20, Senior and Masters athletes. The first match of the 2025 season is on Sunday 13 April at Kilmarnock and John McDonald, who is coordinating the team, is keen to get a good turnout from Central’s athletes.

The format for 2025 will include League/Team competition across the age groups and genders and opportunity to compete in a series of graded events. Central AC will not be involved in other Track and Field League competition during 2025 for these age groups.

The dates and venues are as follows:-

  • Sunday 13 April – Kilmarnock
  • Sunday 18 May – Aberdeen
  • Sunday 8 June – Grangemouth or Linwood
  • Sunday 27 July – Grangemouth or Scotstoun

The intended timetable for 13 April is in the PDF below – this meeting allows for track competition for 100m, 300m, 400m, 800m, 1 Mile, Sprint Hurdles, 2000m Steeplechase (Women), and field competition for Long Jump, Triple Jump, High Jump, Pole Vault, Shot Put, Discus and Hammer. There will be sufficient qualified officials and automatic timing to ensure that performances will be shown on Power of 10 and can be used for international selection.

Central AC is required to provide helpers – three at each match and these personnel could change between morning and afternoon.

The names of athletes along with 2023 (or later) personal bests and Scottish Athletics membership numbers must be submitted by Friday 4 April. Scottish Athletics membership numbers must be up to date and will be subject to scrutiny. There are no individual fees for competing as the competing clubs will cover these costs.
