Riverside Runners Junior Club Championship 2024

Listed below are the sessions and events that will form the basis of this year’s Riverside Runners Junior Club Championship.  In order for juniors to complete the championship they will need to have the following results:

• Best Bleep Test Result
• Best 100 m Time
• Best 800 m Time
• Best 1000 m Time
• Best 2000 m Time
• Best Fun Run Result

There are 6 event categories and 14 events in total to choose from which we hope will enable many of our juniors the opportunity to compete for the championship.

Points will be awarded based upon finishing positions – i.e. 100 points for first place, 99 points for second place etc.  The runner’s best result from each category will be used for the championship.

Any junior who successfully completes 6 events for the championship will receive a personalised medal.

Championship award Categories are:

• U10 girl and boy

• U11 girl and boy

• U12 girl and boy

• U13 girl and boy

• U14 girl and boy

• U15 girl and boy

• U16 girl and boy

• U17 girl and boy

The categories are based upon athletes age on the 01 January 2024.

There will also be trophies for the girl and boy with highest championship points score.

We appreciate that weekends are busy times for families and it is not always possible to get to races so we hope that by using our training sessions and choosing local events more of our juniors will be able to complete the Club Championship events. 

We thank you for your continued support.
