NOL Sprint Races Feb 2014 Bulletin 1 pdf.pdf
The first round of Silva NOL events will include a mixed sprint relay for teams of either two women or two men from states to be held in the centre of Brisbane at Roma Street Parklands. There will also be a sprint qualification event for both senior and junior elites on Sat (PM) from which the top five from each heat will qualify for the A final to be held on Sunday (AM). The maps for these two sprints will be Qualification-Griffith University and the Final- Kelvin Grove Campus of the Qld University of Technology.
In March sees the Silva NOL events return to the complex goldmining map “Yackandandah” for a middle distance race and on the Sunday a return to the granite rock of “Kangaroo Crossing” for a long distance race.
These events provide all elite athletes with a great opportunity to demonstrate their form in all the three disciplines leading into the Easter 2014 carnival of major events.
