What is AVSL?
Contested during the summer season, this year from October 2025 to February 2026, the Athletics Victoria Shield League (AVSL) is Athletics Victoria’s summer track and field competition. With over 50 clubs and five AVSL divisions, clubs battle it out across ten rounds of AVSL to see who takes home the Shield, as well as promotion and relegation for the 2026/27 Season.
Each athlete can register for and compete in as many events as they wish. Athletes will be scored based on a performance scale, with a limited number (to be confirmed shortly with AVSL committee) of their best individual events plus one relay (when held) results counting towards their club’s overall score.
To compete in AVSL, an AV BASE membership, AVSL package, or MAX Package is required.
If you plan on participating on six or more rounds as a junior, or eight or more as a senior, the AVSL package is for you!
You can purchase a membership here or upgrade your existing membership here. however, if you wish just to come and try, you can apply to be a trialing participant for one round (learn more about Trialling Athletes).
