Next weekend, 7 Sept. to 9 Sept., the Faroese Youth Championships will be held at Tórsbreyt. The competition starts on Friday evening with the hurdles. Competition resumes on Saturday morning at 11:00 and on Sunday at 13:00. Sunday will, however, open with the traditional parade at 12:30.
Registration will be ready here on the site tomorrow. The deadline for entries is Tuesday evening 4 September at 23:00!
The cost is DKK 30 per start, and an invoice will be sent to the clubs after the championships.
We expect to need up to 250 official and helper hours in total. It usually goes well with officials and helpers, and naturally we hope the same this year. A registration will be set up for this.
