Saturday 5th April Neal Merry Open Meeting Final Timetable

Thank you to all those volunteers who have made themselves available for the Swansea Harriers Neal Merry Open Meeting on Saturday 5th April so it can go ahead as planned. We look forward to seeing 450 athletes of all abilities across most running, jumping and throwing events getting their summer season off to a great start. Please take the time to read the meeting information below, so you know when and where to be. The final track timetable has changed, but the field event times have not.

• All athletes will need to sign in to collect their numbers and pins at least 1 hour before their first event, upstairs in the white pavilion by the 100m start line.
• Athletes will report directly to the event site – track events 10 minutes and field events 20 minutes before start time (50 minutes for pole vault).
• Long Jump, Triple Jump, Shot, Discus, Javelin & Hammer: three trials for under 11 to under 15 athletes, four trials for under 17, under 20 and seniors.
•  If an athlete has a track event and a field event timetabled at the same time, please sign in at the field event before competing in the track event. Athletes can return to the field to complete trials if time allows. High Jump and Pole Vault athletes will need to re-join the event at whatever height the bar has increased to.
• Parent volunteers will be required to help with an event that your athlete is competing in, supporting the qualified officials with simple tasks such as raking the pit and replacing the bar. Please offer your assistance if there is a call out.
• START LISTS & LIVE RESULTS Click here for the start lists and final timetable. Event Results will be available online shortly after each event has concluded.
• PARKING Please note that parking will be busy at the Sports Park. As a result, those attending this weekend’s athletics event are asked to park at the Singleton Hospital Staff Car Park, shown on the map below and is free of charge.
