TRIAL SESSIONS

Prospective members may apply for a 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.

TRIALS WILL BE OFFERED STARTING:

  • HS Middle Distance - January 4

  • HS Sprints, Hurdles & Long Jump - January 11

  • HS Pole Vault - January 11

  • Junior Development - January 18

  • Seahorse - January 18

Please select the appropriate trial below (1 or 2-SESSION). 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. Please note that requesting a trial does not reserve a spot. Priority is given to full registrations.

Ocean Athletics is a competitive track and field club. Success in athletics requires commitment, consistency, and hard work. Before committing for 2027, prospective JD 2015, JD 2014, and HS Sprints, Hurdles & Long Jump athletes must demonstrate that they can consistently meet the OCEAN ATHLETE CODE:

  • 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.
