Beach Events

Beach events include the Beach Sprint (90m), Beach Relay, 2km Run and Beach Flags. The Beach Sprint is based on the same rules as the 100m race on a track, except it’s over 90m in the sand. The Beach Relay utilises the same 90m track as used for the Beach Sprint, however competitors run up and back changing a baton in a team of four runners.

Beach Flags is an elimination event, where competitors must race 20 metres to pick up a flag. There are fewer flags than competitors, so those missing out are eliminated. The last remaining competitor after all the elimination rounds wins the event.

Cottesloe’s beach team has had some tremendous results over the past few seasons at State and National levels and in the past few years at Junior and Senior levels. The Club has achieved many State medals and in the past few years has taken medals nationally in beach flags.
