Events - Zone 5 Athletics

By popular demand here are the events!!!!

Please note, as indicated previously, these events may have changed as to the welcome letter you would have recieved, as our squad lost 5 athletes from our team, and congratulate them as they represent Team Alberta at the National Legion Competition in Sherbrooke!

Reminder about the events.

Top 8 placings score towards the team point total. Only 2 athlete entries allowed per event. If you see an event may have an open spot, and you think you can fill it, please email me as we do have some empty event spots as we are not taking a full team! In addition, as previously mentioned, you will notice that you may be doing some events that you do not usually do. This is all in fun, and its great to try new events, and grab some points while you are at it!

Late additions to the team, or alternate replacements may not be doing thier first choice of event. Please remember, that late additions and alternates have to fill the open events on the team, and your personal first event selection may have already been filled by other team members - again keeping in mind only 2 athletes per event. If there are any question, please do not hesistate to contact me!

Reminder - there is a mandatory coaches/chaperone meeting on Thurday July 24th info and location to also be posted today. More team information regarding the games will be available after this meeting, and will be posted on this site so please stay tuned!!!!
