The Crossan Cup & Shield XC is a cross country meeting organised by Mallusk Harriers at Belfast Playing Fields, Mallusk on 3 January 2027. The event features multiple races for juniors and seniors on a traditional cross country course.
Racing includes age-group competition for younger athletes and separate senior races.
