Competition

Blyth  have formed a composite team with Alnwick Harriers and we compete in the National Young Athletes Track and Field League. This normally results in four competitions over the summer. The Club pays for the entry fee.

During the summer there is the North Eastern Athletics Track and Field league, which is 6 - 7 meetings held on Wednesday nights at either Gateshead Stadium or Monkton Stadium, Jarrow. Members have to pay their own entry fees.

During the Winter, there is an indoor track and field competition held at Gateshead Indoor facility.

There are also the North Eastern Championships held at Gateshead Stadium and the Indoor Championships held at the Gateshead Indoor facility

There are also events for the Under 11’s at Gateshead and Monkton Stadium during the winter and summer

We also enter runners into the local Harrier League Cross Counry League and pay for their entries. If they wish we will enter any runner into the various cross country championships and pay their entry fee (these are North Eastern championships, North Of England Championships and the All England Championships).

Other races that we pay the entry fees for are: Farringdon Cross Country Open races, Good Friday Races and the Heaton Harriers Memorial Races.
