Entries Open for IAAF Northern Ireland International Cross Country 2019 (New location)
23 October 2018
Entries are now open for the Northern Ireland International Cross Country at Billy Neill Centre of Excellence (Comber, Belfast) on the 19th January 2019.
This is the 42nd Edition of the competition which has been held at various venues across Northern Ireland since it began at Mallusk in 1977.
The meeting is one of the highlights of the World Cross Country calendar, forming part of the IAAF’s World Cross Country series.
Supported by Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council, the event is 1 of only 12 IAAF permits, so can rightly claim to be one of the top cross country races in the world each year.
The 2019 edition will also include the Celtic & Home Countries International, a Flahavan’s Porridge Primary School Race (not part of league) and a full range of junior races from U13s to U20s.
