Ballarat YCW has a very vibrant junior contingent of 300 competing members.
In Cross Country we run a Junior Harriers Cross Country program. This is held on Saturday Afternoons from April through to September.
The 2025 Cross Season will start on Saturday March 29th at Victoria Park BBQ’s opposite Loreto College.
The first event starts at 12.00pm.
The usual starting time for Junior events is 1.15 or 1.30pm
In Track Season, Our Junior Harriers, as we call them, range from under five to under 16 and they compete on Friday nights at Llanberris Reserve.
For the 2025-26 season we have a registration night on in early October and the competition starts on Friday after that
For more details go to the Junior Track and Field (Friday Night) page
One of the features of this competition is the way in which 200 children can compete in 4 events on the night and be finished within 90 minutes. This is something that parents find very appealing.
