The 2024 Jim Sawkins Memorial Handicap was held on a newly extended map of Stringybark Hill on Saturday 29 June. This event was also round 10 of the 2024 ACT League, and round 6 of the 2024 ACT Junior League.
The Jim Sawkins Classic is a Handicap competition with two Divisions:
- Division 1, on ACT League course Hard 1, an open competition for all ages and genders.
- Division 2, on all other ACT League Hard courses, a restricted competition for competitors of all genders, but excluding men aged between 21 and 34.
Competitors’ times are ‘corrected’ in accordance with the same Age/Gender factors used for ACT League and Runners Shop Twilight Series competitions to determine the winners.
The top three placings in each division are below, and complete results for both divisions are available here.
