Note
The information on this page is not yet confirmed, and may be based on the previous years' edition.

The XTERRA Groms is designed to encourage active youngsters to get into sport and have some fun off-road. Kids see their parents, older siblings and friends training and doing races and ABSOLUTELY LOVE having the chance to race and experience it for themselves. The energy and enthusiasm they put into the race makes this our favourite race of the weekend and we regularly get over 100 kids participating!

RULES & INFO

The information below may be from a previous edition of the event, and is subject to change.

The entire event is held within very close proximity to the race HQ at the Dunsborough Country Club and kids are welcome to be supervised / escorted by their parents if needs be.

Course key elements

  • Groms may be accompanied by their parents if needs be (although we encourage you to let them have a go themselves – you’ll be surprised what they can achieve in an event environment alongside other kids)

  • The ride leg may be completed by kids on balance bikes if that is what they ride. But all Groms need helmets (just like everyone else)

  • The course for all legs will be clearly marked and supervised by course marshals so Groms can follow it unguided – adding to the adventure of completing it themselves.
