Track and Field

The Track and Field season runs from early April to the end of July. In April, May and June the Vancouver Athletics Association (VIAA) clubs host seven track meets at various locations on Vancouver Island. Athletes, 9 years and older (born in 2001 or earlier), may compete. Most events are offered at these meets. Athletes may also compete at meets on the mainland. In July, there are BC and Canadian Championships in which many of our athletes have competed. This year is a BC Summer Games Year where athletes 14 and 15 years old may compete if chosen for the Zone 6 team.
Training for the Track and Field season is all year round. In the fall we organize training for the cross country runners to maintian conditioning. In November, indoor training begins in the barn at the Saanichton fairgrounds. In March the training moves outdoors to the track at Parkland School in Sidney.
