LANSW Youth State Championships - U13-U17
Entries to the Championship at SOPAC on 27-28 March 2021 will be based off qualifying standards. To access the qualifying standards please CLICK HERE. Please note meeting the qualifying standard does not guarantee entry into the Championship.
A participant is only able to enter in up to four (4) events, and the qualifying standards are able to be achieved at your centre, another centre or any gala day/meet hosted in a Zone and Region in NSW in the 2020/21 season.
The registration process will be a direct entry via an online portal. Athletes must include where the standard was achieved in the registration process. More information in regards to the entry portal will be communicated closer to the date of entries opening.
Under the current Public Health Order the top two results per region, pending the standard being met, will progress to State Championships and then the next best eight across the state.
