2021 Track & Field Season begins in May at Newport, Yeovil, Trafford, Swindon, London and Aberdare for Harriers members

The 2021 summer track and field season has begun this month with a series of various open meetings in South Wales and across the border in England in line with current Government guidelines.

Athletics Competitions had been suspended in Wales between December 2020 and April 2021 because of the second Wales COVID-19 lockdown, except for an elite-only event.

With restrictions now easing and sport facilities able to fully re-open both indoors and outdoors, we look forward to a much better summer of competition opportunities in 2021 for all club members.

Twenty Carmarthen Harriers club sprinters, endurance runners, jumpers and throwers have already got their season campaigns underway in May at a number of organised fixtures by local clubs and Welsh Athletics... at

  • Newport,
  • Yeovil,
  • Trafford,
  • Swindon,
  • London, 
  • Aberdare

On Wednesday evening, Frank Morgan with a finishing time of 8:27.19 took another 6 seconds off the Carmarthen Harriers under 17 men 3000m club record which he broke in September 2020 at Trafford.
