About Us

Early Season Testing!

The meet which begins at 8:30 am is one of the earliest in the track and field calendar each season and is used by most coaches as a testing ground for a number of their athletes.

The nine-lane grass track on which the athletes will run will see them compete in running shoes as spikes will only be allowed for field events. The stance is being taken by the event organisers based on recent research.
