Joondalup Chase & Christmas Movie

Saturday 7th December

From 4pm

​

Our Joondalup Chase event is one for all athletes to nominate for either the 800m Chase (U11 and Over), 110m Chase (all ages), Javelin Chase (all ages) and Long Jump Chase (all ages).

​​

The Joondalup Chase is a handicap event where athletes will be placed on markers based on their average performance vs the fastest average performance in their heat.  For the 110m Chase athletes will all start at the same time from various starting positions (eg fastest runs 110m and slowest runs 60m).  Essentially, if everyone performs to their average standard, they should all cross the finish line at a similar time.  For the 800m Chase, the athletes will start at different times depending on their average performance (eg slowest starts on the first gun, fastest starts 30 seconds later).

​

Athletes need to nominate to compete in this annual event, and they must have completed in the 800m, 100m, Javelin (including Vortex and Turbo Javelin) or Long Jump once so far this season and have a valid time or distance recorded.  These results will be placed into our spreadsheet to work out athlete handicaps for all the events.

​

Nominations have now closed for this event. No late entries will be accepted.

​

The 800m chase is a timed final event, while the 110m event will be split into Junior (6 to U10) and Senior (U11 to Open) with heats, semi-finals and finals.  The Javelin and Long Jump Chase will be straight finals, split into Senior Boys/Senior Girls and Junior Boys/Junior Girls.  Each athlete will be given 2 throws and jumps, with the best result recorded.

​

Athletes finishing in the top 3 will be awarded prize money.

​

First Place $30.00             Second Place $20.00             Third Place $10.00

​

After the dust settles on the track, we will be screening How the Grinch Stole Christmas for families to sit and enjoy in a social environment.

​

No need to worry about dinner, we have that catered for.  We will be firing up our BBQ and selling sausage sizzles for families to purchase.

​

The bar will also be open for refreshments, and we will be selling snacks for the kids to eat while watching the movie.
