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 six day track meets at various locations on Vancouver Island. Athletes, 9 years and older (born in 1998 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.
