Side event

News item from: 25 Apr. 2021

The Atletiekunie has received a guarantee under the 'Top Sport Exception' to organize 10 competitions, regardless of the COVID-19 measures. The T-Meeting falls within these 10 competitions and is therefore part of the so called National Qualification Circuit. Because there are currently only 10 events officially taking place in the Netherlands, top athletes only get a limited number of moments this year to qualify for tournaments. Since the T-Meeting wants to be there for the athletes, we will also offer a full two-day combined-event (decathlon/heptathlon) this year! In this way we hope to offer the top all-round athletes a wonderful opportunity to reach their limits.

 

This combined-event will be held as a side event under the flag of the T-Meeting in the weekend prior to the T-Meeting. On this Saturday (May 22) and Sunday (May 23) there will be room for a total of 8 men and 8 women. By making this possible, this select group of athletes can prepare for the Olympic summer.

 

The registraion for this combined-event is now open and will close on friday 14 May 20:00. The selection for this combined-event is determined by the T-Meeting organization. Want to know more about how the T-Meeting deals with the corona measures, read on here. The timetable for the combined-event can be found on atletiek.nu.

 

On Monday 24 May, the T-Meeting organization will again be fully committed to sprinting & jumping events as everyone is used from us.
