Fodhla Nicpháidín of Rosses AC, Donegal, competing in the Senior Women's Long Jump event at National Senior Indoor Athletics Championships back in 2023.
Saturday’s National League Athletics Open due to take place in Abbottstown is the latest sporting event to be scuppered by weather.
Athletics Ireland has contracted to participate clubs - including the Donegal ones set to travel - and informed them that the decision was made due to travel safety concerns.
That correspondence read: “Due to the current weather warnings in place and potential for further warnings, we will be postponing Round 1 of the League (including the guest/open competitions in the afternoon) which was due to be held tomorrow (Sunday ) in Dublin.
“Please spread the word that this event is postponed so nobody makes an unnecessary journey.
“Arrangements for the rescheduling of this event will be confirmed early next week”.
