2023 UQ Athletics Club Winter Series Meet #2
Event information
NOTE TO STEEPLECHASERS:
Even though work has been done on the steeplechase water jump hurdle, the assessment is that the hurdle needs to be tested away from competition, and until this can be done the event can not be offered. Therefore the steeplechase will be removed from the program for this Saturday's meet. We do apologise, but it is out of our control.
MEETS ARE BACK! The UQ Athletics Club is pleased to announce it will host three Winter All Comer Meets at the UQ Athletics Centre in 2023. The series of three Meets will lead in to the Queensland Athletics season beginning in October.
It is anticipated the Meet Series will cater for school age athletes preparing for Regional and State championships and Open athletes involved in winter training.

Athletes who wish to compete and are not registered with Queensland Athletics, should first register as a Base Member at $12 (link can be found on the QA "JOIN" page), and then they are able to lodge an entry.
