Irish Under-Age Athletics Champions 1891-2018 (DRAFT) Updated February 2018 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 a 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. In 21,000 lines of results, errors are expected so please email spelling corrections / additions / amendments to [email protected] and [email protected] The Lists will be maintained & updated on the
