Athletics Carnival

Each year the SACSSGSA host an Athletics Carnival that is held at the South Australian Athletics Stadium during the day. This carnival is open to all Catholic Schools in South Australia and selected Non-Catholic Schools that are Associate Members of SACSSGSA.

The carnival consists of the following age divisions:

· U/13

· U/14

· U/15

· U/16

· 16+

Schools are divided into "A" and "B" grades, which compete on the same day. There is a trophy for the School with the most aggregate points at the end of the carnival for each age division and grade, as well as a trophy for the overall winner.

One of the highlights of the day is the final event which is the running of the 100m Champions Race. This race is made up of the fastest 8 competitors across the day in the 100m Sprint. Then then compete against each other for the final award.

If your school wishes to compete in this event please contact the SACSSGSA Office for more details.
