The 2025/26 LAVic Winter Track and Field Meets are qualifying events for Under 9 to Under 17 athletes to compete in the 2025/26 State Winter Track and Field Championships at Edwin Flack Reserve, Berwick on Sunday, 9th August 2026. “Non-standard” events have been selected to make these meets a little different to the “regular” competition that athletes participate in.

The Track and Field Meets will be conducted as a form of Combined Event. Athletes that enter will compete in 5 events (4 for Multi-Class). There will be no awards for the qualifying events but the top 3 athletes in each age group/gender at the State Winter Track & Field Championships will receive State Championship medals.
