Cross Country (XC) is our Winter Athletics season. We encourage all abilities and reward PB’s (personal bests). It’s not just how fast you run, it’s how much you can improve. We will be participating with multiple clubs at the Berwick Home Ground – Edwin Flack Reserve.
We participate in a number of team events, competition events and handicap races to add variety. Please see attachment for all details.
To finish the season, we have a Championship race where all kids receive a medal or ribbon and a presentation for most PBs and 100% attendance.
Each Saturday we will run events with the approximate distances:
Under 6 500m
Under 7 to Under 8 1000m
Under 9 to Under 10 1500m
