2026 FALL REGISTRATION
Ocean is excited to offer a fall membership in select programs with available space. The focus for fall is on cross country running and competition, while also taking advantage of the nice weather in September/October to continue technical training (jumps, throws and hurdles).

VOLUNTEER BOND
Running a track & field club is a team sport. We rely on our families to tackle the 1001 jobs needed to keep Ocean Athletics a great club for us all. To achieve this, Ocean families each complete at least 4 hours of volunteer work in the fall, regardless of the number of athletes they have in the club. To ensure that we all contribute to our success, a $50 Volunteer Bond per family is added during registration. When volunteer hours are complete, families may apply online (see VOLUNTEERING) for their bond to be returned. When approved, the bond is refunded to the credit card used for registration.
1-SESSION TRIAL
Athletes interested in the High School Sprint, Hurdles & Long Jump training group must complete a 1-session trial prior to applying for membership. This group is almost full and only athletes that demonstrate a great attitude, a strong work ethic and commitment to athletics will be invited to register. Other prospective members (Seahorse, JD, HS MD and HS Pole Vault) may apply for a 1-session trial before committing. The purpose of the trial is to ensure athletes are a good fit for Ocean Athletics programs. There is no club fee for the trial. However, all athletes must purchase a BC Athletics “Trial” membership ($10 plus tax and processing fees) to participate.
Please click the link below to apply for a 1-session trial. Programs with available space are listed on the registration form. Once your trial application has been reviewed, you will be contacted to purchase your BC Athletics “Trial” membership and to book your trial date. Please do not attend training before your trial is confirmed.
Trials will be offered starting on these dates:
High School Middle Distance - August 24
High School Pole Vault - August 31
High School Sprints, Hurdles & Long Jump - September 5
Junior Development - September 12
Seahorse - September 12
Please note that requesting a trial does not reserve a spot in the group. Fall intake is limited and priority is given to full registrations.
NOTE: Trials are NOT available for programs that are full (JD 2015)
NEW FOR 2026 - ATHLETES BORN IN 2014
Ocean Athletics is a competitive track and field club. Success in athletics requires commitment, consistency, and hard work. To ensure our programs continue to meet our athletes’ needs, we are implementing a 2-session trial process for applicants born in 2014 (Grade 7). Before committing, prospective members must demonstrate that they can meet these Ocean athlete expectations:
Be ready to start training on time.
Listen to coaches and follow instructions.
Give their best effort during each training session.
Be a good team member by being positive and encouraging others.
Manage themselves appropriately in a structured training environment.
The focus is on attitude and not on competitive performance. In our experience, from attitude comes behaviour, effort and commitment. For these reasons, only athletes that demonstrate a good attitude will be invited to join after the 2-session trial.
REQUEST A 2-SESSION TRIAL:
Click the "REGISTER FOR 2026 HERE!” button on the REGISTRATION page.
Create an AthleticsReg account (or use an existing account if you have another athlete in the club).
Add your athlete to the “WAIT LIST”.
A 2-Session Trial Application will be emailed to you within 48-hours.
There is no Ocean club fee for the 2-session trial. However, a BC Athletics trial membership must be purchased ($10 plus fees). This provides insurance. The link to purchase the trial membership will be emailed to you when your trial application is processed. If your athlete is invited to continue after the 2-session trial, the $10 paid will be applied as a credit towards the full competitive BC Athletics membership required.
2-session trials will be available starting on September 12, 2026. Applications will be reviewed starting on September 1, 2026.
PRORATED MEMBERSHIP FEE
