Committee Corner Hopefully this week we can get through the night without the extreme heat, rain or a storm. The program on this week is week 1, so this includes the walks and 60m hurdles. Thank you to all the families that came last week, we were fortunate the temperature dropped. This month we would like to recognise our awesome Age Managers. Last week we didn t have all our Age Managers present due to the heat, so we would like acknowledge them this week with a small gift. We would just ask all athletes and parents to make sure you show your appreciation to your age manager, ask them if they need help and maybe give them a break and take on the challenge.

Results of State Relays Congratulations to all the athletes that competed over the weekend at the State Relays. The weather was quite warm and all the athletes should be very proud of themselves, whether or not they came in the top 8. For most athletes this was their first time to experience such a large crowd and at Sydney Olympic Park, so that would have been amazing feeling for them. The club is very proud of all your results, there is same great talent coming through our juniors, so well done to all. Thank you to all the parents that brought your children to training and over the weekend. Also thank you to all the parents that helped with the coaching, and organising the athletes.
