Welcome to the Athletics Otago Children's Track and Field Championship Event for 2024.
Please make sure you have consulted the Program as the event runs over two days. Children may enter a maximum of 4 events per day + relay. Grade 10-14 Para Athletes please select your events, and then put your Classification into the Para Question (underneath the Club Name, Club Code & Competition Number questions). Clubs will assign relays closer to the day. Entries close midnight Saturday 9 March.
Sprints up to 400m may require a heat and a final on the same day.
Please do not enter an event if your child is unavailable at the time of the final. If a child qualifies from their Heat to a Final and does not turn up for a final, they may be excluded from competing again that day. If this happens on Saturday, they would still be able to compete on Sunday.
Any athlete having qualified for a final who fails to compete in that final becomes ineligible for further competition on that day. Likewise, any competitor starting in a final and making no significant effort, could also face disqualification. These decisions will be the sole responsibility of the Track Referee.
Age Grades:
All child athletes competing in athletics meetings will have their age calculated as of 31st December 2023. Therefore, your child will be the same Grade as Term 4 last year.
Club Codes are abbreviations for the club you represent.
