BIGish 2025 - Entry site CLOSES 07.00 19th May

BIG is 31 years old in 2025 and we are looking forward to welcoming you once again to a brilliant Field competition

BIGish 2025

Monday 26th May 2025

at Chelmsford Athletics Stadium

PLEASE NOTE :   We are fully aware of the problem relating to the Outside Cage at Chelmsford.  As far as is possible, we will ensure that any athlete looking for qualification marks for the major Championships this summer will be put into Pool A and throw in the Inside cage.   BOTH Cages have a licence so all results will be recognised for Po10 posting.  The Inside cage has a WA permit.   
Seeding will be done by Nick Ridgeon & Mark Chapman
