Cub-registered athletes (aged 7+ years) can compete in the Interclub competition by becoming interclub-registered athletes. Interclub competitions for athletes aged 7-14 years are held on Saturday mornings at the track at Nga Puna Wai. Athletes aged 15+ years can compete in the Senior competition on Saturday afternoons at Nga Puna Wai.

Not sure? Athletes can have two free trial competition days. Get in touch with us if you would like to sign up for a trial.

Interclub-registered athletes train with club-registered athletes on Monday and also train on Wednesday. 

Parents are required to help with our assigned events and will be added to a roster to assist every few weeks (often less for Senior athletes). There is a wide variety of help needed, from recording to retrieving, so there is a job for everyone and training is provided.
