RAC holds a presentation day at the conclusion of our competition season where we present 6yrs+ age group trophies and special awards.
Trophy recipients are determined by a point score based on participation and personal improvement across the season. Registered members 6 years and over receive points as follows:
- 1 point for each event participated in across the season
- 1 point for each time the athlete improves their own time or mark for an event
- 1 point for breaking a club record (Nb. RAC records can only be achieved at a RAC meet)
Point score trophies are presented for:
- Overall Champion - athlete with highest number of points across all age groups
- Junior (6-11 years) and Senior (u14+) Champions - athletes with highest point score for the age groupings
- Junior age groups: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 years Champions – athlete with highest point score for each age group
- Senior age groups (u14+): Sprints, Distance, Walks, Throws, High Jump and Long/ Triple Jump Champions – athlete with highest points score for each event category
