Week of 14 November 

Training - Tues and Thurs

We will be having our usual 2 training sessions this week on Tuesday and Thursday nights at Windsor Park from 6pm to 7:15pm.  With the Club Pentathlon less than 14 days away it is important to get in as much training as possible.  All age groups other than the u6s and u7s will be doing a hurdle race at the Pentathlon so we will be offering hurdle traininig at each session to as many athletes as wish to do it.  We will also have hurdles on the program this coming Saturday.
 
We will be welcoming a new coach to the training session on Tuesday.  Her name is Donna Beikoff and she is a Level 2 sprints coach.  Donna has a great deal of experience in Little Athletics and we look forward to seeing her at training this Tuesday night along with all of our other coaches.  We will have a number of coaches in attendance and will offer training sessions in all events.

Club Pentathlon - Saturday 26 November 2011

The Club Pentathlon will be held on Saturday 26 November.  All athletes should participate - everyone who participates will receive a medal and certificate and the first 4 placegetters in each age group (boys and girls) will be acknowledged.  There is no need to register - just show up on the day.  The warm-up will start at 2:30pm and first event will be 3pm sharp.  The event schedule will be available soon.  The basic schedule will be a hurdle race, a sprint, 2 field events and a 800m run as a final event for the u9s and up.  U6s and U7s will do 4 events in total and their distance race will be 200m.  U8s will do 5 events but not an 800m.
 
We will be holding a raffle on the day to raise funds for the club and if anyone has any prizes they could donate for the raffle please let me know as that would be greatly appreciated.
