Track and Field

This page contains the following sections:

Participation in meets and events is a qualification criteria for a number of Association events. Consult the event specific rules provided on this page.

It is also used as part of the criteria for the TTGLAC Awards. Athletes are to compete in their age groups unless the TTGLAC Committee has determined age groups be combined due to numbers. No athlete can change an event for another unless with prior Committee consent. If an athlete does participate in an event not programmed in for their age group on that day, it will not be entered in the results for that meet.

Independent Meets: As per SALAA guidelines, at most 5 events from an individual visit at another affiliated Little Athletics centre may contribute towards an athlete's qualification total. The recorder for TTGLAC requires verification of those results from the visited Centre's recorder, either by signature on the competition ticket, or by email.

Weather Policy

Rain

Any modifications to the meet due to weather will be made at the discretion of the Committee.

If it is raining we will attempt to hold a meet although some events will be cancelled for saftey reasons, such as High Jump and Hurdles. Any decision to cancel a meet due to rain will be made by the Committee 15 minutes prior to the scheduled start.
