Age Groups: U9 – U17 Athletes – 3 Athletes per Team.
Registrations: Must be returned to the Team Manager by Wednesday 14 June 6.00pm (Karyn will be at the track to collect any forms and fees)
PLEASE NOTE: THERE WILL BE NO LATE ENTRIES
Cost – $10 per athlete – Please note Knox LAC is subsiding the entry fee per team.
The State Cross-Country Relay Championships is a Teams event, where 3 athletes complete a Relay over a Cross-Country course. The distances are less than the individual Cross-Country distances to allow greater flexibility and formation of Teams. Athletes do not carry a baton, they start and finish within a transition zone.
Please Note: Dogs are NOT permitted within the venue. Dogs are not permitted at any Little Athletics Victoria event, you will be asked to leave if they arrive with a dog.
Congratulations to past Knox Little Athlete Rhydian Cowley who smashed three minutes off his personal best time, and set a new Australian Record in the Men’s 35km Race Walk last Sunday in Melbourne.
