As almost everyone knows, the Faroese Youth Championships 2013 will be held at Tórsbreyt tomorrow and on Sunday. The competitions start at 10:00 in the morning. The weather looks very promising, so everything is set for some very exciting and good competitions. Hopefully plenty of people will come to Tórsbreyt tomorrow and on Sunday.
Below is information for athletes, officials and parents.
Worth noting:
– In heats with 2 heats, the top 2 and then the 2 best times go through to the final on Sunday
– In heats with 3 heats, the winner and then the 3 best times go through to the final on Sunday
– In the long sprints with 2 heats, only the times decide the final result
– In the jumps and throws, all athletes get 3 attempts
– Bib numbers (with names) must be collected in the room under the clock
– Each club has a person in charge who is responsible for handing out bib numbers to the club’s athletes
