Entry
The entry fee for these Championships is $20.00 for the meet.  Athletes will see a fee of $20.00 for each event that they enter but the system will then limit the payment to a maximum of $20.00.  For athletes who have taken out an Athletics ACT All Meets package, entry is free.

Please note that entries submitted via the On-Line system must be paid by credit/debit card.   If you do not have a credit/debit card, fill out the online entry and submit, then contact the Athletics In The ACT Office to pay the entry fee before the entry closing date and time.  If the entry fee is not paid by the close of entries, the entry will be deleted.

There are no on-day entry for these Championships.

If you are a registered athlete with Athletics in the ACT, including Registered Little Athletes, ACT Dual Registered Athletes, and athletes only registered with Athletics ACT, you should login to the system first. The Login button is at the upper right of this screen.

If you enter by using your National ID, Surname and DOB, you will be matched to the correct registration type but your other details, including the Club/Centre you are registered with, will not be displayed - they are still matched to your entry.

Athletes will only see, and be able to enter, events being offered for their age and gender.  As an example, a non dual registered LAACT athlete will not see or be able to enter events such as Pole Vault or Hammer.

Entries close at 4:00pm on Monday 22nd February 2021.  (No entries will be accepted after this time under any circumstances)


Athletes without a RevSport National ID
For athletes without a Revsport National ID, details about how you can register through the RevSport system can be found here.

Details as to how to access the registration portal for current athletes registered only with a Little Athletics ACT Centre have been sent to individual athletes by email and, therefore, they do not need to follow the information above.  If you are unsure please contact executive@actlaa.org.au.


Parents or Coaches Attendance

At the current time, the ACT Dept of Health requires that all people attending an event such as these Championships must provide details for COVID tracking purposes.  In addition, we must ensure that the venue is occupied in a manner that is safe and complies with the COVID social distancing guidelines.  When an athlete enters, they can nominate one (1) adult as the person who will be accompanying them.  To further assist with this, there is a separate Coach registration portal where coaches can register their attendance.  Click here to access this portal.

Due to the need to ensure that the occupation of the venue is safe, athletes, parents & coaches are not to be at the venue if they not preparing for competition (ie warming up) or competing.  Once the athlete has finished their events on that day, they, and the parents and coaches with that athlete, are to leave the venue immediately.


Start lists
All Athletes must check the start lists and final timetable which will be posted on the Athletics In The ACT website after the close of entries.  It is each athlete’s responsibility to check the start time of their event closer to the competition date.


Competition Uniform
If athletes are registered only with a Little Athletics Centre/Club, they must compete in theit Little Athletics Centre uniform.

If athletes are registered only with an AACT “senior” Club, they must compete in that Club’s uniform.

If athletes are Dual Registered and competing in an event offered for both Little Athletics and Senior Athletics, the athlete may compete in either their LAACT Centre or AACT Club uniform.

If athletes are Dual Registered and competing in an event offered only to AACT registered athletes, the athlete must compete in their AACT Club uniform.


Check-In
All athletes are required to check-in for EACH event at least 45 mins before the scheduled start time of the event unless otherwise indicated on the Program of Events (note: this is not the start time of your heat, but the start time of the event group).  Please refer to the final timetable as times vary depending on some events.  An athlete may check in for all their events on that day when they check-in for their first event that day


Competition Rules
Athletes are encouraged to read and understand the competition rules and conditions upon entering the current Under 14 – Under 18 ACT Championships Rules of Competition.  You will find a link to these at the bottom of the page.
