Month: February 2023

Dear Members, Grangemouth Stadium has asked that any Parent, Helper or Coach that stays within the building during training time requires a Membership Card to be signed in when they are within the building. This card will have NO cost applied but you will need to go the the Front Desk at the Stadium and register for one from the staff.

The request is to ensure that the Staff know for Health & Safety reasons who is within the building at all times especially if an emergency evacuation was to occur.

Thank you for your support with this.

All please see link below for entries for the Penicuik 10K on Saturday 13th May

Medals for Falkirk in Falkirk!! The weather and the course were kind to us today at home. With some HUGE running achievements.

2nd place silver 🥈🥈podium positions were claimed by our u13 girls team, Christie, Robertson, Taylor & Anderson and our u17 girls team, Macleod, Horne & Christie.

3rd place bronze 🥉🥉 podium positions were claimed by our u15 girls, Hedges, Macleod, Cant & Ogg and also our u15 boys, Culliton, Taylor, Hendry & Hunter.

Noticing the sibling success from the Macleod, Christie & Taylor duos!

Strong performances from our athletes were witnessed in every age group. I’m sure we can all agree that the standard as a whole today was truly amazing.

Good luck to everyone competing tomorrow!
