A big thank you to the parents who helped out at the shot put. We really need everyone to put in their time there!

Our meet is next - please pop into the track room this week to sign up for the many jobs on both Sat & Sun.

We will be having another training session on TUESDAY, APRIL 14TH 530-630PM.  Join the group at the shot put pit at the south end of Bob Dailey Stadium. It isn’t a hard job and it will be easier when you take some time to be shown the rules.

I’ll see you there (I need to learn too!)

If you would like to compete, please ensure you sign up in the track room.  You will also find the schedule of events there to help plan your days.
