Event information coming soon.
Archrival: Mixed
In this event athlete’s will throw a disc (24-30 inches wide) to a target area with three pins lined up 1m apart from each other. Athletes are to knock over as many pins as possible at certain distances. Athletes will get three attempts/throws to knock over the pins at the target at each distance. The point value is the number of pins knocked over x distance away by meters. The distance range is from 5 to 20m and athletes can start at any distance they choose and move to any distance they choose within the range perimeters. If an athlete misses the target more than three times they are out of the competition. Athletes can only repeat their throws at the 20m distance. The remaining athletes of the competition can keep going until they have a miss (no pins hit). In the event of a tie the remaining athletes will be placed at a 15m distance away from the target and will continue until there is a winner. The target platform must be between 2 to 4 feet in height. This event uses a Beamo disc/frisbee and other brands may be used as long as it meets the width requirement of 24 to 30 inches.
Sports Cross: Boys and Girls
In this event athletes will pull themselves a distance of 10m across the floor on a scooter using a rope. The athlete who reaches the other side first wins. Athletes can chose to sit or lay on the scooter, but they cannot use any body part to move themselves forward or in any direction. Athletes can only use their hands to pull the rope. The ropes will be tied onto the other side of the wall. During this sprint event athletes who fall off their scooters may get back on without any body part touching the ground and start pulling themselves to the finish line. This can be run as a time trial final or a final with a maximum of four athletes at one time.
Multi Sprint: Boys and Girls
In this event athletes will be using their running and agility skills as they weave in and out and hurdle over cones.. In this 30m sprint event athletes will weave in and out of four cones and then after the turn will hurdle over there sets of cones (two placed next to each other) to the finish line. At no point may any athlete knock any cones over or go out of their lane. All cones must be 18 inches high and be placed 2m apart from each other. This can be run as a time trial final or a 1 vs 1 final.
