14 Mar 2013 - Training

City North Little Athletics - Training Tonight
 
We have been advised that tonight is the first night of training at Windsor Park for the Brothers junior Rugby teams so it is going to be busy down there.  All of our athletes attending should meet at our equipment shed. 
 
We will have coaches there and we will be able to train but it will be busy and parking will likely be at a premium. 
 
This is the only occasion during the year in which there will be any overlap between our season and Brothers.
 
State Champs
 
The final list of athletes for State Champs can be found here.  We will not have a tent at the stadium and athletes will be responsible for own warm-up.  You should get to the stadium early and find the marshaling area.  Events can be brought forward by 1/2 hour and if they are the first call would be much earlier that that.  Full uniform with age patch, number, IGA badge and Medbank badge must be worn.  Skins must be worn inside out. 
 
Spike use is limited and can only be put on near the start line.  The spike rule document can be found here.
 
Good luck to all of our 47 competitors at the State Champs.  Check the QLAA website (www.qlaa.asn.au) for any updates on the event or if you wish to check timetable etc (timetable has earlier been distributed). 
 
This Saturday.
 
Just a reminder that the AGM is 2pm this Saturday, with events including cross country race from 3pm and Trophy Day at 4:30pm.  If you are willing to help out on the committee or are interested and want to know more please attend the AGM.

Week starting 4th Mar 2013

Training - Tuesday 5 March - Cancelled
 
As at this morning there were still large amounts of water on the ground at Windsor Park - the ground is saturated so the water is not draining away.  As a result we have had to cancel the training session for Tuesday night. 
 
Thursday's training should be right to proceed at 6pm.
 
Club Champs - this Saturday 9 March
 
As a result of the cancellation of the first day of the Club Champs this past Saturday, the event will now just be a 5 event competition to be held this Saturday 9 March.  We will use the program that would have been used this past Saturday which can be found here.
 
Hopefully we'll have some clear weather this Saturday. 
 
Trophy Day - Saturday 16 March
 
Our last Saturday of the season will be our trophy day at Windsor Park on 16 March.  We will have some races, including a cross-country race on the day followed by our presentations.  More details to come.
 
State Champs - Fri to Sun 22 - 24 March
 
The State Champs will be held in Brisbane on Friday 22 March through to Sunday 24 March at the State Athletics Centre at Nathan in the large stadium.  The list of qualifying athletes can be found here together with the program here.  Some of our coaches will be present to help with warm-up at this event but not for all events.  Athletes should arrive in plenty of time for their events and bear in mind events can be called forward.  The usual uniform and spike rules apply.

2 Mar 2013 - Event Cancelled

Saturday 2nd March 2013 - EVENT CANCELLED

Due to wet weather that is forecast to continue throughout Saturday the competition event we have scheduled has been cancelled for the 2nd of March 2013.

This will mean that our City North Championship that consisted of 10 events will now only have 5 events instead of 10 (this happened last year as well).

Hopefully the rain will clear and next week will be able to have the final Saturday competition event of our season which will be our Championship next week.  We will most likely modify the scheduled events as a consequence.

We will be having our breakup, trophy and final get together on the following week, which will end the Athletics season for 2012/13.

Enjoy the weather !!

Cheers
