💙🖤 It’s relay time, ! 💙🖤

Regional Relays are a team‑focused carnival where athletes from U7 to U17 come together to represent USCLAC in both track and field events.

All abilities are welcome — this event is about having a go, working together, and showing UniFamily spirit.

📣TRACK RELAYS — HOW THEY WORK

Track relays use teams of four athletes.
Events may include:
* 4 × 100m
* Shuttle Relay, Swedish Relay, Distance Medley (age‑group dependent)

Athletes nominate individually. After nominations close, our competitions team will place athletes into relay teams — no need to organise your own.

📣FIELD EVENTS — HOW THEY WORK
Field events are competed individually at Regional Relays. Performances are then combined to form qualifying field teams for State Relays.

Events vary by age group and may include: Long Jump High Jump Discus Shot Put

📣WHAT CAN MY ATHLETE NOMINATE FOR?
Athletes may nominate for up to five events available in their age group.
Multi Class athletes may nominate for up to three events: 2 × 100m Long Jump Discus

📣AGE GROUPS AND TEAMS
There are two types of teams at Regional Relays.

Individual Age Teams = all athletes are the same age group (U9–U17).

Combined Age Teams = athletes from two age groups work together (e.g., U9–U10).

📣UPDATED AGE GROUPS
This season’s Combined Age Team groupings have been adjusted to better align athlete development:
* U7-U8
* U9–U10
* U11–U12
* U13–U14
* U15–U17
(was previously, 9-10, 11-13, 14-17)

📣 CAN TEAMS QUALIFY FOR STATE?
* Yes — for U9 to U17 athletes.
* Track teams placing 1st, 2nd or 3rd may progress to the McDonald’s State Relay Championships.
* Qualifying field teams may also progress.

U7 and U8 compete at Regional Relays but do not progress to State.

📅 Saturday 14 November 2026

NOTE: Due to the previous vandalism on the track, we are awaitng the completion of the repairs which will come down to the wire. There are two programs - one with 1500m and 400m events included and one without these races. We have replaced these with the option of an extra 100m sprint for keen beans. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

💙🖤2026 -2027 Season Friday Night Volunteer Information 💙🖤

Little Athletics relies on volunteers. Our Friday nights can’t happen without the help of parents and carers.

There are plenty of ways to assist both on and off the track.

👟 Age Marshalls: From tiny tots to our oldest teens we need parents to ensure athletes get safely from one event to the next. You’ll check names off, do a head count before moving on and ensure no-one gets clocked by a rogue discus. You can write down the field results or get another adult volunteer to help you out. Just grab a fluro bib from the bucket and wear a smile. No experience needed or expected.

💎 Event Measurers, Rakers, Recorders and Markers: Our field events go much smoother and faster when everyone pitches in. Grab a rake at the long jump or fetch the shot put after throws. It is also a great way to bond with your kid and make friends.

🫧 Equipment helpers: Got some free time in the afternoon? Come down to the track early from 4.30pm onwards and help our committee volunteers set up for the night. Many hands make light work. You’ll help get high jump mats out, set up the hurdles and prepare the throws equipment.

🥩 Canteen helpers: Snags are life at 7pm. Trust us. No-one is more appreciated. We would love to have helpers prep the food, serve the hungry athletes and help clean up. This year we also have a roster for each age group 🙏

📣 Start line helpers: Love being up close to the action? We need volunteers to make sure the laps are counted on the 1500m, hand out the place cards and make sure kids (and parents) stay clear of the timing gates.

Thank you for being part of our much loved UNIFamily.

We truly hope you have a great season and make lifelong memories.
