Unfortunately we have to cancel competition today due to the heat wave, where higher than normal temperatures are expected today in Brisbane.  We have a duty of care to consider the health and comfort of athletes, families and our volunteers.

We have a Reserve Day scheduled in our Calendar, so we will use it with Week 1 competition, so no athletes will miss out.

We will see everyone next Saturday. 

Sunday 18 August – Sign-on Day: 12.00pm to 3.00pm at Sunnybank High School

Saturday 24 August – Orientation Day: Registrations from 12.30 to 1.30pm; 1.30pm Announcements; 2.00pm start programme.

Saturday 31 August – Week 1 Competition – 1.30pm arrival for Announcements and warm-ups; Start competition at 2.00pm

When we return from the Xmas break there will be 6 weeks of Centre competition remaining, just enough for new members to join us and enjoy the fun of athletics. After Xmas fees are lower due to the reduced membership period. Its a great opportunity to get involved and get the new year off to great start! Fees will be announced shortly.

Our Season will kick off this Saturday, 1:00 for registrations, 1:30 for notices and warm ups

At 2.00pm we’ll split into 4 groups of athletes and families to head around the event areas, starting at different points, to show everyone how each event runs.

We’ll give all the athletes some practice and advise parents how they can help to run the events. It’s a great way for athletes to meet others in their new age groups and help families to get familiar with each other ready for the first Comp day on the 26th

RUN, JUMP & THROW

Due to the current condition of the oval we are cancelling competition for today. The safety of our athletes and the comfort of our families always comes first. The oval is very wet and, even if the rain stops, won’t dry out enough to hold a safe competition this avy. The competition day won’t be lost, we’ll reschedule it to a reserve day later in the season

Our season will commence with the following dates:

Sunday 21 August – Sign-on session   12:00 – 3:00pm – Sunnybank SHS, Gager Street entrance

27 August – Week 1 Competition   12.45 – 4:00pm

All sessions will be held at our home ground of Sunnybank High School (oval), out in the sunshine and fresh air.  There will also be ample shade shelters placed around the oval.
