The Junior Lightning Carnivals are held at the Year 7, 8, and 9 levels and involve modified winter sports. Schools have shown a tendency to involve their full cohort groups for the Year 7-9 carnivals. However, if a school chooses to involve a portion of that group, participation is still highly encouraged. All options carry the same responsibilities with regard to staffing and supervision.
The 2024 Lightning carnivals dates are:
Year 7 Monday 6th May 2024
Year 8 Tuesday 7th May 2024
Year 9 Wednesday 8th May 2024
** Note : if there are insufficient team nominations for the Year 8 or 9 carnivals to be viable, then a Year 8 & 9 carnival will be delivered on Tuesday, 7th May 2024 **
Sports that are currently offered at the lightning carnivals include:
BOYS Soccer, Football (AFL), Rugby Union, Basketball
GIRLS Netball, Soccer, Football (AFLW)
