Entries have opened for the 2025 Oceania Masters Athletics Championships being held In Brisbane,
Australia, from 6-10 September.
OMA president Cameron Burrows said the opening of entries had fired the starter’s gun on the
Championships.
“There’s a real sense of anticipation taking shape now that the program of events has been finalised
and athletes are able to get their entries in”, Cameron said.
“This is the first standalone OMA Championships since they were held in Mackay in Queensland in
2019.
“COVID forced the cancellation of the Championships planned for Norfolk Island in 2021, and the
Championships in Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands in 2023 and Suva in Fiji last year were both
held as a masters category within a broader athletics event.
“So it is especially pleasing that we are once again offering a Championships just for masters
athletes,” Cameron said.
“There are other masters athletics events on the calendar this year, but these Championships in
Brisbane in September are the official OMA Championships.
“It is only at these Championships that records can be set and will be recognised as Championships
records.”
Cameron said Oceania Masters Athletics was expecting upwards of 400 entries for the
Championships, to be held over five days at the State Athletics Facility in Brisbane, part of the
Queensland Sport and Athletics Centre, the state’s premier athletics facility.
“We are hoping for good representation from across the Oceania region and will look at ways in
which we can encourage, assist and achieve this.
“An exciting aspect of the Championships is that for the first time at an international Masters
athletics championships, masters-aged para-athletes will compete in their classifications alongside
other participants.”
Intending competitors have until 25 July to enter the Championships. Early bird entries will attract a
$30 discount on the administration fee until 11 May.
