Oceania Masters Athletics are pleased to advise that the 2025 Oceania Masters Athletics Championships being held in Brisbane, Australia from Saturday 6th September to Wednesday 10th September 2025 will incorporate para-athlete categories. This will be a first for International Masters Athletics.
Para-athletes aged 30 and over will have the opportunity to set State and National Masters Records, and create new Oceania standards.
No qualifications standards are required to be involved, the only requirement is for athletes to be registered with their National Masters Athletics body.
OMA President Cameron Burrows (AUS) states “the OMA Council is excited to be part of the ever growing inclusion and popularity of Para athletics by taking this step to include para-athlete categories in our Championships. We hope this encourages many more athletes from across the Oceania region to come to Brisbane in September”.
