| The Combined Event Championships is offered to U9 – U17’s. | |
| The number of combined events per age group is a graduated increase to reduce undue pressure on younger athletes and encourage athlete’s development. A strong emphasis is on the participation of children in a wider range of events, rather than the early specialisation in one or two specific events. | |
| Additionally, the State Team Selectors will refer to the U15 Heptathlon results when selecting athletes for the State Team. | |
| The Combined Event is considered one event; therefore, athletes failing to start or make a trial, in any of the set events of the Combined Event will not be allowed to take part in the remaining events per the LAQ Rules. | |
