Weekly Program
Our weekly program consists of four events for all age groups. U9 to U12 will also participate in a skills session each Friday competition night, which will focus on a different event discipline each week.
TRACK AND FIELD EVENTS
The range of events differs depending on the age group. There is a set 5 event program every Friday – U6 and U7 will do 4 events.
The typical finish time is around 7-7.30pm (earlier for Tiny Tots).
Tiny tots: have a separate program, with games and some track events that introduce them to some of the skills and fun of competing.
