Message from Gary Curtis:-
Hello all, This is to let all U13-U17 athletes know that the NEYDL season starts at Monkton Stadium on 24/4. You may not be aware that Birtley are in a composite team with Tyne Bridge, so this means in field events where there is a maximum of 4 athletes per team, it would be 2 from us and 2 from Tyne Bridge, and where there are spaces we can try and fill them. On the track there is no limit to numbers. In all events the first 2 athletes in each team score points so it is better for the team to have athletes in as many different events as possible. Each athlete can do 3 events plus the relay. The team also need Officials and Volunteers as each team must provide 1 Track judge, 1 Timekeeper and 4 field officials, we as a team do have qualified officials to run the events but as a development league why don't you shout up and get involved. Please, when you have a minute have a look at the new NEYDL website and familiarise yourself with timetables and what it is all about (these are also shown at the bottom of this page). 
And as an added bonus its all paid for by your club, so WHY don't you come and have go. 
Regards
Gary

Senior entries £15 (must be at least 15 on day of race). Junior entries £5. Fun run also available. Full details and entry can be found HERE

The second fixture of the senior league takes place on Sunday 12th June at Middlesbrough. We'd really like to see a good turnout from our club, both competing and also officiating - we need to provide five field judges between the two clubs, as well as a timekeeper and a track judge. 
You don't need to have any qualifications to help, particularly with the field events, just a willingness to turn up and measure, retrieve or rake - please consider helping out on the day, you can still do this AND compete (or just help out!).
There is a sign up sheet near the bottom of this page.
