sjac Games II Q & A's.
Q. How do I enter the sjac Games II?
A. You will need to complete an Entry Form either a complete team or incomplete team. You will need to have a Team Manager as part of that team. If you are not currently an SJAC athlete you will also need to complete a Consent Form.
Q. Where are the sjac Games II being held and what are the details of the competition?
A. All the competition information is outlined on the sjac Games II flyer.
Q. Do all athletes in the team (potentially mixed gender and ages) have to be from SJAC?
A. No. The team can consist of athletes from anywhere. Could be school friends, relatives etc...
Q. How many events does each athlete in the team do?
A. Each athlete takes part in every event. 75m, 600m, Howler Javelin throw, Long Jump and 4x100m relay. The aim of the sjac Games is to provide competition, fun and maximise participation.
Q. If I can't get a team together can I still enter as an individual?
A. Yes. Athletes can enter as individuals or as part of an incomplete team. Athletes that are not part of a complete team will be grouped together in teams on a random basis in advance of the competition. Awards will be given at the end for the top 3 teams and the top 3 individual overall performances.
Q. What does being a Team Manager involve?
A. If you are a team manager, your responsibilities are making sure your team arrive at the competition venue on time and you are responsible for the team members whereabouts and safety when they are not directly taking part in an event.

A. Wednesday 14th October 2009. Competition date Wednesday 21st October 2009.
Q. Will there be the regular sjac sessions during competition week?
A. No. None of the regular weekly sessions will run competition week. So the normal sessions on Wednesday 21st October 2009 or Friday 23rd October 2009 are cancelled.
