Oxon AA organises County Championships and inter-county events, selects County teams and leads athletics in Oxfordshire. More ➜
A reminder that entries close at 12.00 midday on Thursday 18th APRIL. No late entries are possible.
Can I remind athletes (especially those with track entries) that ALL entries should be associated with a PB. The latter is used in seeding where necessary. The absence of any PB may result in athletes being asked to compete against seeded runners with a variety of times.

Congratulations once again to Andrew Clough on further increasing his portfolio of qualifications! Andrew is now a Level 2 Endurance.
Attached are the updated results for the County Cross Country Championships held on 6th January 2019 at Shotover Park, Oxford.
There seems to be some confusion among clubs about eligibility of athletes to compete.
Importantly, ALL athletes MUST have eligibility based on BIRTH or RESIDENCE for more than 9 months. In addition, athletes should enter as a member of their FIRST-CLAIM CLUB. If there are any athletes entered, AND not obeying these rules, can I be told before the event. That does NOT stop them competing, but would affect their inclusion in team results.

Many of you will be aware that the post of Treasurer to the OAA was not filled at the AGM in November. Hence it is IMPORTANT (if the County is to continue functioning) that the Entry Fees for the XC Championships are ;paid promptly. Ideally, can clubs get cheques to me for the deposit (£30) by the closing date of 20 December; and then their residue to me by 20 January. I need each club to work out the additional fees owing. Please send cheques to the same address as for entries.
