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.
