ITS RELAY TIME YA’LL

Hey ya’ll… Its that time if year again where where start thinking about Relay Teams.
This seasons relays will run a little different.

The GCR Region Relay Championships will be held on Sunday 28th February at Edwin Flack (Berwick Homeground). This event is for U9-U12 ONLY.

Teams who compete at this event have the opportunity to qualify for the State Relay Championships at the end of March.

U13-U16 will not compete at region relays this season, They will instead compete directly in the State Championships at the end of March.

Relay Events
Athletes will be placed in teams of 4 runners. Athletes can compete in up to a maximum of 4 events:
• 4 × 100m (Boys, Girls & Mixed)
• 4 × 200m (Boys, Girls & Mixed)
• Medley 100m, 300m, 200m, 400m (Boys, Girls)

Athletes can compete in single gender teams or mixed teams. A mixed team is made up of 2 girls and 2 boys. We would love to take as many athletes/teams as we can to relays. It’s a great day out and a super great experience for the kids. Not to mention, we like to show off our talents 😉
