As part of the ongoing process to help engage with clubs and create a greater understanding of requirements for running events, Cycling Ulster are organising three presentations in January for clubs in NI that will be attended by the Cycling Ireland Events Officer and representatives from the PSNI.

These are compulsory for all NI based clubs involved in event promotion and therefore it is essential that clubs are represented at one of these workshops.

The first presentation is on Tuesday 8th January in the Crowne Plaza, Shaw’s Bridge at 7PM followed by Thursday 10th January in Walshe’s Hotel Maghera at 7PM and finally Saturday 12th January in the Silverbirch Hotel, Omagh at 12 noon.

Cycling Ulster Chairman, Tommy McCague said:

“There is a wealth of knowledge and experience within our clubs on promoting events. These presentations will however provide clubs with an opportunity for gaining a greater insight into the requirements set out by Cycling Ireland and an opportunity to engage with the PSNI.

“Event organising and safety is a crucial aspect of our sport, the Cycling Ireland Events Officer will be in attendance at these presentations and clubs must ensure they are represented so they can feedback to their other officials and members as well.”

Clubs should email patrick.withers@cyclingireland.ie stating which presentation they will be attending in advance of the event. Numbers are limited for each venue but we will do our best to accomodate each club at their preferred presentation.
