City North Little Athletics - Thursday 3 November and Saturday 5th November

Training - Tonight (Thursday) - 6pm

We will be having training tonight Thursday from 6pm to 7:15pm. We will have a number of coaches in attendance and will do some field event work and relay running. We have had 2 Thursday sessions so far and the numbers have been lower than Tues night so athletes attending on Thursday have received some very good attention and training from the coaches.

New Uniforms

The supply of new uniforms is in and can be picked up at the clubhouse tonight from 6pm to 7:15pm.

Regional Relays - Saturday 5 November 2011 - Redcliffe - 8:30am

The Regional Relays are this Saturday from 8:30am. The location is Langdon Park, Cnr Mabel St & Oxley Ave, Redcliffe click here for a Google Map of the location.

A very helpful document prepared by one of our Team Managers David Storor can be found here. It sets out the time of events for age groups and the teams - athletes do 1 or 2 running relay events and 3 field events. Please try to arrive 1/2 hour before your child's first event. Team members are relying on you to be there so please arrive 1/2 hour before the first event to allow time for marshalling and warm-up. The program can also be found by clicking here.

We will have tents there but bring along fold out chairs.

If you have not already confirmed your attendance with David or Paul Pringle - our other Team Manager, please contact David by clicking here. Any questions about the event can also be sent via that link.

Please remember that full uniform - short and shirt must be worn with number,age patch and IGA patch. "Skins" must be worn inside out because of sponsorship issues. U10 and below cannot wear spike shoes even without the spikes.  Spikes shoes without the spikes can be worn by U11s and U12s.  Spikes can be worn by u13s and above.  Please be there 1/2 hour before your child's first event.

Our club helps with the long jump and we will need parents to help out at this - when your child is competing in long jump please go to the long jump to assist.

There will not be a competition this Saturday at Windsor Park because of Regional Relays.

Club Pentathlon - Saturday 26 November 2011 - 3pm

We will be having a Pentathlon at Windsor Park from 3pm on Saturday 26 November. This is open to all City North registered athletes. A flyer about this event can be found by clicking here is attached. Points will be awarded to all athletes who compete - medals will be awarded to all athletes with the top 3 in each age group to receive 1st, 2nd and 3rd place medals. The program of events is being prepared but it will be a mixture of events in each age group. There is no need to register - just show up on the day.

Many thanks to the parents who help installed the new long jump pits last Saturday morning.  Further improvements are planned to Windsor Park including renewal of the High Jump fan.
