South Fraser Qualifications for the B.C. Provincial Championships
Coaches, please have a candid conversation with all your athletes (and families) about South Frasers and qualifying to the BCs. Athletes must decide their intentions at the South Frasers. This is necessary in order to advance athletes and teams who we are CERTAIN they will be attending the BCs. If an individual or team can't go to the BCs, the spot will be offered to next individual or team. No school may qualify two teams to any one BC championship race. If you finish in the top 40 (top 20 for SR Gs), please check with the table about the cut off for individual BC berthing and state your provincial intentions.
2023 Berthing was calculated by BCSS via 5 years of results + athlete registration numbers via BCSS. See the 2021/2022 BCSS Cross Country Handbook/Rules and BCSS fall berthing for the details.
