2010 BMXV Interclub Challenge - What is the Interclub Challenge?
A serious fun day of racing to enable riders to race on the State Championships track. All racing is scored for points for your home club with the highest points earning club being awarded the Interclub Challenge Perpetual Trophy.
The Interclub is one of the few events on the BMX Victoria calendar where the emphasis is totally on fun and enjoyment. It is one of the few opportunities for all riders planning to compete in the State Titles to ride the host track in race conditions during the lead up to the event.
As such, the Interclub is an ideal time to show the Club colours, be it through Rider’s tops, Club banners, or other creative means. Remember the greater the percentage of your Club’s riders participating, the higher the chances your Club has of taking out the Club Championship.
This year, we would like to see all Clubs actively supporting the Interclub. It is a lot of fun and very affordable.
