RC/2 Conduct of Events
Event
Scheduling
The Carnival Manager in consultation with the Competition Manager and Track and/or
Field Referee has discretion to cancel or reschedule, over the period of the
Championships, any/all event/s.
Every endeavour will be made to notify Centres as soon as possible following a
decision to cancel all events via email and website.
Any event/s that cannot be held during the Championships will not be rescheduled
and recorded as not being held.
Role of Marshals
on Uniforms
Marshals have a responsibility to ensure that athletes are in their correct uniform.
Once an athlete commences an event, that athlete cannot be disqualified on the
grounds of incorrect uniform.
Event
Precedence and
Procedure
Track events will take precedence over field events. Competitors must notify the
Chief Official before they leave the field event and must return immediately after
their track event is finished. Failure to do this may mean the competitor is not
allowed to return to the field event, as stated below.
Any competitor who leaves a field event to compete in a track event may return to
the field event and complete his/her full complement of trials (including if the athlete
is entitled to extra trials in a final), with the exception of the High Jump. Two (2)
minutes will then be given to the returning competitor/s between trials. In the High
Jump, a competitor will return to the event at the height to which the bar has been
raised through normal competition.
Note the RC/5 (Field Event Trials) provision of a practice throw/ jump before final
round.
Where necessary, to allow for competitors returning from track events, a field event
will be deemed closed to all competitors ten (10) minutes after the completion of all
trials/jumps. The relevant Field Referee is to ensure that no extraordinary delay has
occurred that prevents the return of athletes before the event is closed.
Session events will be progressed as shown in the Championships Program unless
varied by the Carnival Manager.
No events will be continued after the exit time to leave the Woden Park ground area.
Reporting for
Competition
Competitors in all track events will report directly to the designated marshalling
area immediately after the first call for an event.
Competitors in field events will report directly to the event area immediately after
the first call for the event.
Each event will receive two marshalling calls only, approximately five (5) minutes
apart. Under no circumstances will marshalling calls be made for individual
competitors.
The time shown for events is not a start time. Competition events will not
start before the time shown in the Championships Program.
Competitors are to be escorted to the Marshalling or Event Area by a Centre Official
who is not to leave until the group of competitors are registered by the
Marshal/Official. If a competitor is at another event, the Marshal is to be advised of
the name of the missing competitor and what event they are at. Competitors are not
to report to the Marshalling Area unless their event has been called.
Events cannot commence unless the two marshalling calls have been made.
Clashes The Clash Marshall is to be informed by Team Managers before the start of
competition of any known or likely competitor clash between track and field events.
The Clash Manager will inform the Marshal/Event Official of those likely clashes and
will continue to monitor the competition for other potential program clashes and
advise the Marshal/Event Officials
Para Athletes
and athletes
with disabilities
Para Athletes have been allocated blocks of competition for 100m, 200m, 400m,
800m, Shot Put, Discus, Javelin and Long Jump. Calls for those events will be made
in accordance with the allocated block timing.
The events will be conducted under the supervision of competent Para Athlete
Officials and receive assistance, where necessary, from Officials allocated to able
bodied events.
For Competition Guidelines for Para Events please go to Appendix A.
An athlete with a disability who is not competing as a Para Athlete is encouraged to
compete but in doing so uses the equipment supplied and complies with the Rule of
Competition as per able bodied athletes.
Field Event
Chiefs
Field Event Chiefs should make all U13 athletes aware that they may seek the
relevant Field Event Referee’s presence to adjudicate on the legitimacy of a throw or
jump, but that no retroactive re-instatement of any attempt not observed by the
relevant Field Events Referee will be permitted.
Field Event Chief may have the attempt measured and recorded pending adjudication
by the relevant Field Event Referee.
Records Any records set need to be verified by the Track or relevant Field Referee as
appropriate.
For track events, the Track Referee must sight the electronic result prior to verifying
the record.
Australian Best Performance track records will only be recognised by verification of
electronic timing.
For field events the appropriate mark etc needs to remain in place for verification.
The High Jump height needs to be verified by the relevant Field Referee before the
athlete commences the trial and must be rechecked if the crossbar is dislodged
before any subsequent trial commences.
Australian Best Performance field records must be verified by the use of a calibrated
steel tape or bar or with a fibreglass tape, which has been tested for accuracy
against a certified steel tape.
The Event Chief Official and/or the relevant Referee is responsible for completing and
countersigning the correct paperwork recording a newly achieved record before the
paperwork leaves the competition area.
RC/3 Centre Responsibilities
Uniforms All athletes must compete in their approved Centre Uniform, complete with current
age patch, LAA Sponsor’s Logo and registration number. Any sponsorship on
athlete’s uniforms which conflicts with current LAA and/or LAACT sponsors must be
covered prior to competition.
Responsibility for
Uniforms
The Centre Team Manager is responsible for ensuring the completeness of an
athlete’s uniform. Any difficulties should be cleared with the Carnival Manager, who
has been granted discretion on these matters, prior to the athlete’s first event of the
day
Team Managers Each Centre must provide a Team Manager. The Team Manager is responsible for all
aspects of the management of the Centre activities on the day including the
provision of likely competitor track and field clashes to the Clash Manager prior to
the start of competition.
Team Managers should be able to anticipate calls for track events and have
competitors ready to report to the designated marshalling area.
The Centre Team Manager or Team Manager of Officials is responsible for ensuring
that the required team Officials from the Centre are provided for the whole of the
Carnival at the appropriate event area.
RC/4 Protests
First Step Before a protest is lodged, a verbal approach may be made by an U13 athlete /
Team Manager to the Chief Official (Field Events) or Track Referee at the event.
If not satisfied with the Chief Official’s explanation for the decision, the relevant Field
Referee must then be asked for a decision.
Written protest If not satisfied with the decision of the Track or Field Referee, as appropriate, a
written protest may be lodged with the Carnival Manager, by the Team Manager, to
be adjudicated by the Jury of Appeal.
Timing of Protest The written protest must be lodged with the Carnival Manager no more than fifteen
(15) minutes after the event result has been posted and be accompanied by a
protest fee of $50.00 which will be forfeited if the appeal is unsuccessful.
The Jury of
Appeal
The Jury of Appeal will consist of the Carnival Manager, the Officer of Officials and a
Referee who was not involved in the original decision.
Conflict of
Interest
If any member/s of the Jury of Appeal are associated in any way with the protesting
Team or were involved in the original decision, the Carnival Manager will appoint a
replacement/s to the Jury on the day for that appeal only.

Appendix A
COMPETITION GUIDELINES FOR PARA EVENTS
General Information
1. These Guidelines are to be read in conjunction with Little Athletics Australia Standard Rules of
Competition and LAACT Competition Rules.
2. Athletes can only compete in the Able Bodied events OR the Para Events. They cannot compete in both.
3. Medals will be awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd in each age group. There will be medals awarded to girls and
boys in each age group.
4. Athletes must use the implement weight specified for their classification/age group (refer to throws
tables below).
5. In long jump athletes are allowed to take off from the edge of the pit.
6. All events will be conducted as multi-disability events. Competitors will compete against a BASELINE as
determined by Athletics Australia. Placings will be determined by the competitor's time/distance calculated
against a percentage of the BASELINE.
Classification
1. Classification is a way of grouping athletes of similar function or ability for the purposes of competition.
2. Athletes do not have to be formally classified. Athletes who do not have a classification will be given a
provisional classification on the day of competition by the Para Competition Director.
Hearing Impaired Athletes
Track
1. Athletes are not allowed to wear hearing devices when they compete. Instead a hand touch or a light
system will be used.
Jumps and Throws
1. Athletes are not allowed to wear hearing devices when they compete but may wear their devices during
instructions by officials.
Visually Impaired Athletes
Track
1. Escort/guide runners may be used by visually impaired athletes.
2. Athletes should provide their own guides for competition, if possible.
3. In laned events, an athlete with a guide will be allocated two lanes.
4. As the vision impaired athlete crosses the finish line, the guide must be behind the athlete. At no time
may the guide pull, propel or push the athlete forward.
5. The method of guidance is the choice of the athlete. In addition, the athlete may receive verbal
instruction from the guide.
6. Bicycles or other mechanical means of transport may not be used by guides.
Jumps
1. Athletes may use a caller to provide acoustic orientation during the approach run. This guide can assist in
positioning the athlete on the run way.
Throws
1. Athletes must be brought to the throwing circle by a guide/caller.
2. It is the task of the guide to help the athlete orientate themselves in the throwing circle before the
throwing attempt.
3. Acoustic orientation is permitted for athletes, before, during and after their throwing attempts.
4. Athletes must be escorted from the throwing circle.
