The age groups for this year's athletics have been changed and will be as follows:-
Juniors Under 13; Intermediates 13-15; Seniors 15 and over; Ages reckoned on September 1st 1962. Because of this there will now be FIVE age groups for the Standards Competltion: Under 12s, Under 13s, Under 14s, Under 15s and over 15s. The standards for these age groups are given below. The following points will be awarded as usual:- Low standard one point; High standard two points; Special standard three points; Record standard ten points. Because the Junior and Intermediate records will be virtually invalid this season, as a result of the change in age groupings, record standards will operate only in the Senior age group. In all other age groups however, boys reaching the special standard of the age group above their own will score six points. There will still be only three age groups on Sports Day: Junior, Intermediate and Senior, and the minimum standard required for entry in any event on Heats Day will be as follows:- In the Junior Section - Special Under 12 Standard or High Under 13 Standard. In the Intermediate Section - Special Under 14 standard or High Under 15 Standard. In the Senior Section - Senior High Standard. The track and equipment are available for practice and recording of Standards every day from 12.20 to 1 p.m. and from 4 to 5 p.m. The Standards Competition closes on Friday May 17th.
