Cross Country Season Is Here! 🏃♂️
The wait is over — Cross Country has arrived! 🎉
It’s time to hit the ground running and start building towards an exciting winter season. Cross country is a fantastic way for athletes to stay active during the cooler months, build endurance, and enjoy running in a fun and supportive team environment.
The 2026 Cross Country season kicks off on Saturday 2 May, with our first competition taking place at Knox Park. We’re looking forward to welcoming all athletes back for the start of the winter season.
Whether you’re returning after the summer Track & Field season or giving cross-country a go for the very first time, everyone is welcome. The season is a great opportunity for athletes of all abilities to challenge themselves, improve their fitness, and represent the club across a variety of courses throughout the winter.
Our Cross Country calendar is now available, with a number of venues scheduled throughout the season. We encourage all families to take a look and mark the dates in your diary so you don’t miss out on any of the action.

For athletes who participated in the summer Track & Field season, your registration already covers the cross-country season. If you are looking to register for cross-country only, the Little Athletics Victoria registration portal will be opening soon. Please keep an eye on our social media channels — we will advise everyone as soon as registrations open.
As with the summer season, parent duty is compulsory during the cross-country season to help ensure our events run smoothly. Knox uses an online volunteer sign-up system, which allows families to select a duty that suits them. Further information and sign-up details will be provided prior to the start of the season.
Further information about venues, start times, and any additional event details will be shared as we get closer to each round.
We look forward to seeing all our athletes out on the course and enjoying another great season together!
