Team selection is the responsibility of the WLAC Championship Team Manager and WLAC Relay Selection Committee. SELECTION CRITERIA Team Selection Process: Where an age group has in-excess of four entered athletes, WLAC will attempt to recruit additional athletes to fill multiple teams. Where multiple teams are involved within an age group, the WLAC Championship Team Manager and WLAC Relay Selection Committee will select teams based on times (i.e. A team, B team, etc) with the purpose of ensuring the best team possible is selected to represent and compete for WLAC. The teams will be chosen based upon the results of the first four with the fastest four athletes (based weeks of the 2018/19 WLAC track & field competition, on recorded times) in each event being selected in the A team, next four fastest in the B team, etc. Athlete running order (1, 2, 3, 4) will be selected by the WLAC Championship Team Manager and WLAC Relay Selection Committee. The order determined will take into consideration several factors, but ultimately the final running order will be that which is determined to be the best for the dynamics of the team, taking into consideration the strengths/weaknesses of each runner. With teams from age groups U/13 and above, there will be some negotiation with team members regarding running order, but ultimately the final decision will be that of the WLAC Championship Team Manager and WLAC Selection Committee. Where the Championship Team Manager and WLAC Relay Selection Committee have children competing for selection, they will not be involved in the selection process for teams containing their own children. WLAC will attempt to publish selected two weeks in advance of an event via an email to all entered athletes. The process of querying team selection is as follows: An email should be sent to the WLAC President () with the details of the query within two days of teams being published. The WLAC President will consult with the WLAC Championship Team Manager and WLAC Relay Selection Committee to discuss the query and within two days a response to the athlete’s selection query will be provided. On finalising teams, WLAC Championship Team Manager will enter/lodge team entries with LAVic by the required entry date. The Championship Team Manager and WLAC Relay Selection Committee will abide by the principle of fair play and will attempt to provide every athlete with the opportunity to compete to the best of their ability and more importantly to enjoy their team event.
