Athletes have the opportunity to nominate and compete at an array of carnivals throughout the season. Information regarding these and nominations dates can be found on the club notice board located beside the office. All athletes are eligible to attend these centre carnivals and we encourage participation in them. You can choose to attend as many or few as you wish. Not all carnivals include Under 6 events but some even offer Masters events which means mum and dad can have a go as well. It is a great confidence booster and most athletes really enjoy being part of a carnival atmosphere. Many athletes form some long lasting friendships with athletes from other clubs also. Most carnivals, the athletes will need to nominate themselves, with the exception of Regional and State events for which the club will be responsible for nominating interested athletes.
Regional Competitions
Regional Championships and Regional Relay Championships are open to all registered athletes from the U7-U17 age groups and primarily provide friendly Regional Competition. In addition, Regional competitions are the means for qualifying for the State Championships for the U9-U17 age groups.
Regional Championships are an individual competition while Regional Relays are carried out in teams; Teams of 2 or more for field events and teams of 4 athletes in the track events. Teams are placed by combining the two best performances (distance or height) of athletes from the same Centre.
Our centre is part of the Suncoast Region.
