4 COMMITTEE AIMS & EXPECTATIONS The Committee s aim is to: Provide an enjoyable sport for your children. Provide a safe environment for athletes, parents, siblings and spectators. Teach and/or coach the correct manner in which to compete in each event. Organize each meet so it can be completed as efficiently as possible. Provide safe and compliant equipment to use. Keep costs down so that athletics is affordable to all. Provide an avenue to enter into senior athletics. Support all athletes of all abilities equally. Provide information from Tasmanian Little Athletics as soon as possible. Be aware of children with special needs, make allowances for them to compete & attain PB s. We believe we do this as best as we can, but are always open to suggestions to make this centre even better than it already is. The Committee s expectations from each parent are: Encourage your child, not criticize. Allow your child to have fun. We have all had our go at trying to be a super athlete, try not to live your life in their shoes. Stay and watch your kids. We are not a childcare centre, we host an event for your child to compete in, we provide a safe environment for this, and you are responsible for your child whilst they are on site. Emphasize PB s, not winning. Help out on site with the field events. This means measuring, spiking, raking or keeping the kids waiting patiently, quietly, together, and ensuring they are supportive to others competing. Have your turn in canteen or cooking on the barbecue. Pick up all rubbish that may be left behind by your group when leaving a site. Show respect to the person who is chief judging, they are doing their best & are a parent just like you. Have a Working with Children s Card up to date. (Working with Vulnerable People) If you take equipment from the cupboard please return it at the completion of the event. Should any equipment be broken, or poorly maintained report it to a committee member to allow prompt repair or replacement. Help when asked, if possible. The infield is out of bounds to everyone unless you are a crew member of an event. Please stay in the waiting areas as designated by the Chief Official. Always watch the apparatus being thrown, as sometimes a Discus, Shot Put or Javelin can be released in your direction by other athletes learning to perfect their throw, this is particularly important in Discus. When your child is entered in a state meet, our centre is responsible for providing qualified officials and event crew during this meet. For your child to compete, you will be required to assist at either field or track events. Even if your child has entered and doesn t compete on the day we are still required to do duties for this athlete so commitment once entered is paramount. If we all work as a team and comply with this document our meets will run smoothly and be an enjoyable place to be for not only the parents but to also the athletes competing. On behalf of myself and the committee thank you for your cooperation & assistance throughout the season. Michelle Scolyer (President) BLAC

6 TEAM APP To receive messages & notices from TeamApp, you MUST have push notifications ENABLED on your device.. Canteen & BBQ roster 17th December 2017: Good afternoon. Canteen roster for Sunday 17th December (program 2) Nat Luttrell and Sonya or Annette. If any one else would like to help out when the race walks need judging, come over to canteen. Thank you to Linda Charles Tarli Brakey, Jodie Fuller, Sonya and Annette and Sam Lawler for canteen & BBQ duties over the last couple of meets. Thankyou to Sonya and Annette as always for canteen preparation and clean up. We will try to only have one U14 and or U15 parent helper each week or so, as the numbers in those age groups are generally lower. If you think canteen might be your way to help the club into the future, come and see Sonya, Annette or Michelle the Pres. Don t forget to check with Carlene and Jodie at the registrars office each week if you think you have badges due, or if you want an explanation about the badge system. Check the website Results page and newsletter pages regularly, I will try to save relevant results sheets as soon as I can. As soon as the results from the Northern All State are published by Little Athletics Tasmania, there will be a note on our Facebook book page to the link and I ll get a copy saved to our own webpage. If you are not sure how Multi points system works, ask the registrar, secretary or President.
