  • Irish Universities Athletics Champions 1873-2020 Updated March 2020
    Irish Universities Athletics Champions 1873-2020 Updated March 2020 University athletics have played important roles in the foundation and evolution of track and field in Ireland. The first athletics meeting took place in College Park on Saturday 28 February, 1857, under the auspices of Trinity College Dublin Football (rugby) Club, termed ‘The Dublin University Football Club Foot Races’. This athletics meeting was only preceded by meetings organised by The Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, London in 1842 and at Exeter College, Oxford in 1850. What became known as "The College Races" continued through until 1986, except on eight occasions – 1878 and 1879 when the Board of the College refused permission because of a drunken riot by students in 1877, WWI (1915-1919) and 1921 because a female student spectator had been shot dead by an I.R.A. sniper from Nassau Street during a cricket match. The first All-Ireland Track and Field Championships were held in College Park under the auspices of Irish Champion Athletic Club on 7 July, 1873, with some 8,000 spectators watching 91 entries in the 13 events. Henry Wallace Doveton Dunlop, a Trinity graduate, was the founder of the I.C.A.C. His lasting achievement was the building of Lansdowne Road Rugby Ground, the oldest international rugby ground in the world, as a multi-sport complex for athletics, cricket, rugby, tennis, archery and bowls. College Park and Lansdowne Road would continue to be prime venues for international athletics matches and meetings and Irish championships for over a century. The Queen’s University of Ireland was established formally by Royal Charter on 3 September 1850 as the degree-awarding body for the Queen’s Colleges of Belfast, Cork and Galway, which had been established in 1845.

  • Athletes Being Present Four Years Ago
    2008 Irish Olympic Team Briefing Athletics Ireland Team Story so far After a disappointing Athens Olympics for athletics, there has been a changing of the guard with only five of the thirteen qualified athletes being present four years ago. There have been several standout performances in those four years such as Derval O’Rourke’s World indoor Championships Gold and silver in the European Championships in 2006. David Gillick has also won two European Indoor titles at 400m. The Irish Sports Council in conjunction with Athletics Ireland made timely interventions post European Championships which have proved very positive. The Irish Athletics team has improved year on year and had a successful World Championship in 2007 in Japan with eight athletes finishing in the top 16 of their respective events. Paul Hession is in very strong form after a double in the 100m & 200m in the Cork City Sports. Both Robert Heffernan and David Gillick have set new national records this season for the 20km Walk and the 400m respectively. Olive Loughnane is another athlete to watch after a personal best performance at the IAAF Race Walking Challenge finishing in 6 th place. Supporting the team All the athletes who will be representing Ireland in the Bird’s Nest stadium receive both financial and medical support from the Irish Sports Council. Derval O’Rourke is the only contracted athlete with eight athletes receiving World Class level funding. The remaining qualified athletes receive funding at International level. Athletics Ireland provides a High Performance programme funded by the Irish Sports Council and has 80 athletes in total with a support strategy that includes warm weather training camps, medical support and preparation for international competitions.

  • Evolution of Irish National Records 1861-2020 Event Note Athlete Competition Venue Date
    Evolution of Irish National Records 1861-2020 Event Note Athlete Competition Venue Date The task of developing a table of the Progression of the Irish National Records, from before the birth of organised Athletics in the late 19th Century up to the present day, inevitably presents the compilers with a number of difficult problems. First, of course, is the difficulty that arises from the existence of parallel governing organisations during significant periods of this history and the practice of their maintaining non co-ordinated sets of records. We have also needed to recognise that up until almost the last quarter of the 20th century performances achieved outside Ireland were not accorded status as Irish National Records. Thus, most notoriously perhaps, the winning performances of Bob Tisdall and Ron Delany at the Olympics of 1932 and 1956 were never, in their day, recognised as Irish Records. But there were many others, perhaps less prominent, which because they were achieved outside Ireland were never subjected to those levels of appropriate scrutiny which are customarily accorded to Irish record performances. A further problem arises from the fact that until sometime in the early-1930s the National Record was deemed to be the best authenticated performance made in Ireland whether by a local athlete or by an overseas visitor. Thus an Official List of Records published, for example, in 1924 credited Irish Records to Wyndham Halswelle (SCO., 440y), Hugh Welsh (SCO.,1 Mile), Alvin Kraenzlein (USA, 120yH), and Ralph Rose (USA, Shot Putt). The particular significance of this in the context of our project is that, therefore, a performance by an Irish athlete superior to an earlier Irish Record but inferior to that achieved by an overseas athlete, was not considered for ratification and so, not subjected to the higher levels of scrutiny customarily applied when considering whether to award the accolade of “Irish Record” to a particular performance.

  • Roll of Honour Irish Athletics Champions 1873–2013
    Roll of Honour Irish Athletics Champions 1873–2013 Comments, additions, corrections to Pierce O'Callaghan [email protected] & Cyril Smyth [email protected] The Irish Champion Athletic Club (ICAC) was formed during late 1872 and early 1873. It was not, in any sense, a national governing body, its primary objective being to hold an annual meeting designed to achieve " a satisfactory settlement ...of all questions of superiority in standard athletics performances" - in other words, to hold an annual championship meeting. The ICAC, then foundered quite rapidly, being wound-up in 1880/81. Thereafter the championship meeting was run by an ad hoc committee in 1881, and by the Dublin Athletic Club from 1882 to 1884. After several abortive attempts to establish a national governing body for athletics, two were formed over the winter months of 1884/85. First the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) was formed not alone to encourage and administer athletics, but also to develop and foster the traditional Irish field sports of hurling and football, as well as handball. Their action galvanised the existing athletics "establishment" in Dublin who perceived the formation of the GAA - insofar as pertained to athletics as a usurpation, and so was formed, very soon after, the Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA). The distinction between the two rival governing associations is often explained in purely political terms whereas, in reality, the situation is rather more complex; particularly since both organisations embraced a quite broad spectrum of political aspiration, so that once the initial hostilities subsided the majority of athletes, whatever their affiliations, seemed to have no philosophical problems competing in the promotions of both bodies, open meetings as well as championships.

But there were many others, perhaps less prominent, which because they were achieved outside Ireland were never subjected to those levels of appropriate scrutiny which are customarily accorded to Irish record performances. A further problem arises from the fact that until sometime in the early-1930s the National Record was deemed to be the best authenticated performance made in Ireland whether by a local athlete or by an overseas visitor. Thus an Official List of Records published, for example, in 1924 credited Irish Records to Wyndham Halswelle (SCO., 440y), Hugh Welsh (SCO.,1 Mile), Alvin Kraenzlein (USA, 120yH), and Ralph Rose (USA, Shot Putt). The particular significance of this in the context of this project is that, therefore, a performance by an Irish athlete superior to an earlier Irish Record but inferior to that achieved by an overseas athlete, was not considered for ratification and so, not subjected to the higher levels of scrutiny customarily applied when considering whether to award the accolade of "Irish Record" to a particular performance.

  • Irish Under-Age Athletics Champions 1891-2017
    Irish Under-Age Athletics Champions 1891-2017 To be forgotten is to die twice Hereunder, is an attempt to compile the list of Irish Under-age Athletics champions from 1891 to the present day. This has been a challenging task to say the least, due to the sheer amount of underage events & titles available on an annual basis. Alongside this, the older (pre internet era) results are only available in newspapers and there are number of results which simply went missing or were regretfully never recorded at a central level. The compilers warmly welcome any spelling corrections, additions and amendments you notice and ask you to email them so that history can correctly record all the great young Irish athletes who spent their early lives training exceptionally hard in pursuit of that elusive Irish title. As the old Irish saying goes "Mol an óige agus tiocfaidh siad" - Praise the youth and they will come.

  • Roll of Honour Irish Athletics Champions 1873–2014
    Roll of Honour Irish Athletics Champions 1873–2014 Comments, additions, corrections to Pierce O'Callaghan [email protected] & Cyril Smyth [email protected] The Irish Champion Athletic Club (ICAC) was founded during late 1872/early 1873 and organised the first Irish Championships on Monday July 7, 1873 in College Park Dublin. These championships have been held every year since and are the longest running national championships in the world . The ICAC, then foundered quite rapidly, being wound-up in 1880/81. Thereafter the championship meeting was run by an ad hoc committee in 1881, and by the Dublin Athletic Club from 1882 to 1884. After several abortive attempts to establish a national governing body for athletics, two were formed over the winter months of 1884/85. First the Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) was formed not alone to encourage and administer athletics, but also to develop and foster the traditional Irish field sports of hurling and football, as well as handball. Their action galvanised the existing athletics "establishment" in Dublin who perceived the formation of the GAA - insofar as pertained to athletics as a usurpation, and so was formed, very soon after, the Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA). The distinction between the two rival governing associations is often explained in purely political terms whereas, in reality, the situation is rather more complex; particularly since both organisations embraced a quite broad spectrum of political aspiration, so that once the initial hostilities subsided the majority of athletes, whatever their affiliations, seemed to have no philosophical problems competing in the promotions of both bodies, open meetings as well as championships.
