About this Club

As 2009 is almost into the final month, I take this opportunity to thank you for your Participation & Performances over the past couple of months.

Your enthusiasm has been responsible for producing many excellent evenings of great competition in All Grades & Divisions. The number of ‘new’ records set for September to November is probably also a record!

Club activities for 2009 will conclude on Wednesday 16th, December and resume again on January
6th, 2010.

Country Championships 2010

As mentioned in our handout program and publicity article, more information on the Annual Country Track & Field Championships would be circulated.

Country Championships are the highlight of the year for all Country Clubs within NSW.

The 2010 Championships are being conducted at the Kerryn McCann Athletics Centre in Wollongong on Saturday & Sunday 16th & 17th, January.

If you are relatively new to Club Competition or have not attended Country Championships previously, I encourage you to think seriously about entering and participating in this great weekend. Talk to other members who have attended and I am sure you’ll be convinced.

Country Championships offer you …. great competition on a synthetic track…… great friendly atmosphere, and a great time mixing with other ‘like minded’ country athletes !!!

There is a wide range of events & age groups. INDIVIDUAL ENTRY FORMS are available from the admin. table at the Track and Field meetings each week.

IMPORTANT to NOTE:
Athletes interested in competing who have not been issued with current ANSW Registration
Numbers (from October this year) are requested to see Jan Gibb ASAP.

ALL Entry Forms MUST be returned to us NO LATER than December 16th Please co-operate.

NOTE: To encourage participation the Club will cover the cost of each athletes

first event ($18). The second & subsequent events are $8 per event. This cost is the athletes responsibility, payable when Entry Forms are returned.

Relay Teams in the various age categories will be selected when entries have been returned. Athletes involved will be informed. — All Relay entry costs are covered by the club. If you have any questions concerning any aspects of the Championships please feel free to ask.

Looking forward to many athletes taking advantage of the Country Championships being conducted so close to home, plus the advantage of a ‘beach close by’ should heat wave conditions prevail ! (Members who competed at Campbelltown, especially take note.)

Club will resume on Wednesday 6^th January. This will allow athletes attending the Country Championships two weeks to sharpen up after the Christmas – New year parties and over indulgence !

If you have any questions concerning any aspect of the club, please do not hesitate to call.

Looking forward to welcoming you all, ‘BACK on TRACK’ in 2010 for the second half of our Summer Season of Athletics.

“WISHING EVERYONE A JOYOUS CHRISTMAS SEASON

and A CHALLENGING & SATISFYING YEAR TO FOLLOW”
