A FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION .... Can my child run a longer distance than what is being offered. They run in our local park run? The answer is NO   Because, being an athletics club and insured by our governing association, we must abide by the recommendations & rules of the relevant associations when providing competition both on the track & cross country.

UniSC event distances align with school and/or athletics associations recommendations for competitive running. As a guide or for a better understanding of the associations policy, below are the:

  • Medals & fun run ribbons will be presented at the final cross-country race of the series
  • Protests will not be considered
  • SHOES - UniSC Athletics committee have made a decision that for safety concerns all runner including the 3-7 years are required to wear foot-ware
  • UniSC Athletics will have an assigned photographer/s at the event. Please contact us if you have concerns.
