Scottish Athletics International (SAI) is the sanctioning body for both Masters and Lightweight athletes.
SAI is dedicated to creating uniform guidelines and rules for championships and works to improve how scores and records are kept. SAI serves as a liaison between sanctioning bodies and host festivals or athletics organizations.
Masters Athletics
Scottish Masters Athletics organizes championships for athletes aged 40-100. We work with Athletic Directors providing resources and sharing some responsibility to making the Master’s Worlds go off without a hitch. Each year a new games is chosen. This provides opportunities for beautiful sightseeing , easier travel on local athletes, and the chance to meet new and old friends again.
All world records for Master athletes are kept by SMA. Further details can be found in the Records section of this website.
All invites for worlds will come from heavyathlete.com. So please help us make that website the new defacto location worldwide for all games and all scores.
Lightweight Athletes
Starting in 2025 SAI took over the coordination for US Nationals and Lightweight Worlds. We are bringing out experience with Master’s Worlds to growing the Lightweight class and bringing these championships to a new level.
Heavyathlete.com moving forward will be the source for scores. Our goal this year is to have a page showing current rankings for US Nationals and World Championship invites.
As in past years we are working on setting our Stewards for US Nationals. The goal is get back to having at least 3 festivals that this premier event rotates through each year.
