Piirin myöntämä kilpailu 2026

Varstakisat, officially listed as Piirin myöntämä kilpailu, is a Finnish athletics meet in Urjala, held at the Urjala central sports field. It is organized by Urjalan Urheilijat and scheduled as a Sunday afternoon programme in late July, with WA classification noted in the listing. This is not a single road race; it is a track-and-field competition with sprints, distance races, hurdles, jumps, and throws. The senior events include 100m and 3000m races, long jump, shot put, discus, and men’s triple jump and javelin, with women also contesting high jump. The age-group programme is broad, running through under-19, under-17, under-15, under-14, and younger boys’ and girls’ classes, so the day is built around local club athletes as much as open-category competitors. Younger athletes race shorter sprints such as 40m and 60m, while 800m races, hurdles, jumps, shot put, discus, and javelin provide a full athletics day rather than a narrow specialist event.
