The Ólavsøka procession is a traditional part of the ceremonial opening of our national festival. Many sports clubs and their members take part in the procession, including the two athletics clubs in southern Streymoy, Hvirlan and Bragdið. Both clubs are urging their members to turn up and be part of this ceremonial occasion. True sportspeople with a real sporting heart should be part of the procession.
It is also a good opportunity for the clubs to show their face and their flag. FÍF therefore also calls on athletes to turn up and walk in the procession with their club. Meet in the Kommunuskúlin schoolyard on Saturday at 13:30.
Hvirlan in the Ólavsøka procession last year
Bragdið was also well represented last year. Here they are pictured in Grasagarður after the opening ceremony.
