Dear Athlete
Thankyou for entering our Track and Field Competition on the 23rd May at The Mountbatten Centre. It will be a privilege to welcome you to the track
Covid-19 has caused much disruption to events and we are very happy that we can finally welcome back spectators to help provide a great atmosphere.
Below is the new Covid-19 Guidelines provided by England Athletics Spectators are now able to come in and watch some great athletics track side and Multiple Groups of 30 can all sit together. Please ensure that groups do not exceed this amount.
Whilst this is a great step forward we would still like to remind all attendees that Masks must still be worn when going indoors either to use the toilet or to buy refreshements within the centre.
During the Day we will be Piloting new ideas including:
Live Streaming of the Event
Use of Drone Technology
Music and Commentary
Live Instant Results Scoreboard
Q Code Scan in of Athletes
The Mountbatten Centre requires us to ensure a disclaimer has been emailed explaining that the races and some Field Events will be Live Streamed to Youtube. That disclaimer is below.
An athletics meeting is nothing without spectators, officials and coaches plus volunteer helpers. Please show appreciation to all the volunteers who are giving their time to help this great sport. In return we will endeavor to put Spectators as close to the action as possible and to give all the athletes the exposure they deserve for their many hours of dedication.
Please look out for our other events on the website www.setafa.co.uk
