The deadline for entering the Faroese Championships for seniors has been extended to Thursday at noon.
The competition takes place on Saturday and Sunday, both days from 13:00 to around 16:00. The timetable and start lists will be posted here on the site on Friday evening.
Exceptions to the age rules have been made for the relays. Clubs can now field one team in which one or more athletes may also be born in 1998 and 99. However, younger participants are only allowed on ONE team. This is so that clubs can field as strong a 1st team as possible.
In the high jump the heights will be as follows:
Men: 140 – 145 – 150 – 155 – 160 – 165 – 170 – 175 – 180 – 185 – 190
Women: 120 – 125 – 130 – 135 – 138 – 141 – 144 –
In the field events each athlete has three attempts. After the first three rounds the standings are drawn up, and the best six go through to the final, where they get three more attempts. In the final the order is changed, so that number six goes first and number one goes last.
The competition is open to everyone who is interested in taking part.
