Brittni Wolczyk works on her shotput form during a recent Langley Mustangs practice at McLeod Park. The 14-year-old, who is in her first year with the local track and field club, set an age group club record in the javelin back in April with a throw of 43.03m.

Track and field athletes from both sides of the border will be competing at McLeod Athletic Park for the 33rd annual Pacific Invitational 2012 B.C. Masters Championships.

The three-day meet, which kicks off on Friday and runs until Sunday (June 17), is hosted annually by the Langley Mustangs Track and Field Club.

Close to a 1,000 athletes are expected, competing from the junior developmental age group (born from 1999 to 2003), midget (1997-98), youth (1995-96), junior (1993-94), open (ages 20-34), and master’s (ages 35 and up). The master’s group  is split into five age groups.

And this year, for the first time, there is a little rascals division, for athletes ages 6, 7 and 8.
