Galway City Harriers has welcomed the announcement from Athletics Ireland that in accordance with specific government guidelines all clubs can return to limited activity from Monday 18th May. Athletics is one of the first sports to receive Sport Ireland and Government endorsement to return to activity and we thank the expert contribution from our working groups in competition, recreation and clubs.
There are specific Guidelines and protocols which need to be considered and put in place before training can recommence.

The Club Committee has met to discuss the guidelines and note that there is a substantial body of work to do before official training can resume.
Accordingly, Galway City Harriers will not be resuming training until we can fully comply with all such guidelines and protocols.
