Regular Season

Thanks for all the athlete, parent and carer support over the first three weeks of competition, plus the two trial weeks. There are always things to improve, but overall its been going well.

We have filled all our age manager spots – thanks so much to all of the parents and carers who have agreed to help out. Little Athletics only runs with parent involvement and its fantastic that people have taken this on. Being an Age Manager isn’t a big job, but it is one of the most important. We will be working with age managers on roles and responsibilities in the coming weeks. A guide for age managers is available from Little Athletics.

The weekly Little Athletics program will be updated each week on the weekly programs page. A PDF of the three week program is also available on the same page. There have been some changes the to the program, and it is always subject to change on the night. Please remember that the program is designed so that the groupings listed in the program run in an integrated way and you should only turn up to track events when you are called.

All athletes must have their numbers, and badges on display at all times and full uniforms are required. We are still waiting on Coles badges, so don’t worry if you are missing that.

Uniforms and registration numbers/badges which have not yet been picked up will be available on Friday at 5:30 from the top of the grandstand.

Nominations for the Zone Carnival are now open and completed forms must be returned to our Registrar, Amy Searle by 9 November 2018. Zone high jump has qualifying heights so make sure that your child can clear the qualifying height before nominating.

We will be starting with a warmup this week at 6pm sharp so please be there 10 mins before.

Lastly, its still not too late to register. Please remind friends or family who might be interested.
