Dates and venues for 2022-23

The Lindsays Cross Country Season will soon be off and running!

Our opening events are only a couple of weeks away as the Lindsays District XC Relays take place at three venues (over two weekends) at the start of October.

Clubs and team managers are advised to start gathering names now and begin the entry process via our online links for each event.

Athletes and clubs should note that this year we’ve moved the entry deadline times earlier in the day on the closing date (which is usually Thursdays): from midnight to 5pm.

This ensures that we have staff available right up until the time entries close to help with any last-minute queries.

Online entries are open and the races follow the usual format for Young Males, Young Females, Males (Senior, U20, Masters) and Females (Seniors, U20s, Masters).
