District Cross Country

The House Country was also a trial for students to make the District Cross Country Team. The age groups and race distances for the District Event (which will be held on Friday 10 May) are as follows:

 

9/10 years (2km)

11 years (3km)

12/13 years (3km)

 

Each school is allowed to send up to 10 runners in each event, so for most races there is well over 100 competitors. The goal is to make the Top 15 runners in your event which means you qualify for the next stage - Division. We will communicate results in next week's newsletter and wish all our students the best of luck.
