We can’t wait to see ALL our Souths families back at the track!

🏃 🏃 🏃 2026 Regional Relays nominations are OPEN! 🏃 🏃 🏃

❓ REGIONAL RELAYS • WHAT IS IT & HOW DOES IT WORK? ❓

📅 Sunday 8 November
📍 UQ Athletics Facility, St Lucia

The HART Sport MetWest Regional Relays are a little different from the other carnivals throughout the season because this one is all about TEAM SOUTHS! 🩷🖤🩷🖤🩷

Athletes from U7 to U17 come together to represent Souths Little Athletics across track and field events, and athletes of all abilities are encouraged to get involved. You don’t need to be one of our fastest runners or biggest throwers. Regional Relays are about having a go, working together, supporting your teammates and representing our club!

Athletes may compete against teams from Souths as well as clubs including Toowong Harriers, Centenary Little Athletics, Kenmore Little Athletics, Ipswich Little Athletics, Providence Athletics - all from the MetWest Region!

Regional Relay team allocations will be based on athletes recorded performances from the 2026/27 Little Athletics season on ResultsHQ, with final team selections subject to committee discretion.

🏃 HOW DO TRACK RELAYS WORK?
Track relay teams consist of four athletes, with events including the 4x100m and depending on age group, shuttle, Swedish or Distance Medley relays. Multi-class relays are 2x100m
Athletes nominate individually and do not need to organise their own team. Once nominations close, athletes will be allocated into teams.

Swedish – 100m, 300m, 200m, 400m
Distance – 200m, 200m, 400m, 800m.

🏅 WHAT ABOUT FIELD EVENTS?
Field events are a little different. Athletes compete individually at Regional Relays, with performances then used to determine qualifying field teams for State Relays.
Available field events vary by age group and include Long Jump, High Jump, Discus and Shot Put.

🙋 WHAT CAN MY ATHLETE NOMINATE FOR?
Athletes can nominate for up to five events from those available for their age group. Available events vary by age group, so check out the event table to see exactly what your athlete can nominate for when information is released.

💰 HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Souths will pay the entry fee for all of our athletes who nominate for Regional Relays (each event costs $6 to enter).

🏆 CAN TEAMS QUALIFY FOR STATE?
YES! Regional Relays are the pathway to the McDonald’s STATE RELAY Championships for U9 to U17 athletes. Track teams placing 1st, 2nd or 3rd and qualifying field teams may progress to STATES! States are scheduled for Saturday 12 December 2026 at QSAC. U7 and U8 athletes compete at Regional Relays but do not progress to State Relays.

📅 Sunday 8 November
📍 UQ Athletics Facility, St Lucia
👟 U7 to U17 athletes

🌭 A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR BUNNINGS BBQ VOLUNTEERS!!! 🎉

We are absolutely blown away by your awesome help on Saturday, 3 October, and the incredible good spirits you brought along with you. Every sausage sold made a real difference and helped to make our BBQ a huge success!! 🙌 🥳 🌟

Our amazing volunteer team was small but mighty - athletes Sisipho, Ncumisa, Tristan, Johnson and Gemma, and parents Michelle, Mbali, Leisha, Kath, Mark, James, Jodie and Kym - you are legends! 🙏💕

We were so busy on the day selling more than 1000 sausages and hundreds of drinks that we didn't take many photos. We hope you enjoy these 🙂

Most importantly, the funds raised will help us bring in expert coaches to support our kids throughout the season ahead - so watch this space! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️⭐

THANK YOU!!! ☀️😎

We can't wait to see all our athletes and families back on the track this coming Saturday, 10 October for hurdles week 🎽🏅
