RAIN, RAIN, STAY AWAY..... WHAT DO WE DO IF ITS RAINING ON SATURDAY?

10/18/2016

0 Comments

 
With the current forecast not looking that great for Saturday, its timely to update our new and return families on our processes for bad weather.

In the event of rain on Saturdays, we will inform our families of a meet cancellation as early as possible that morning. We make every effort to run our meets, and therefore will normally leave the decision to cancel til around 8am Saturday morning (except in the event that ACT grounds are closed earlier than this time). 

In some cases if the grounds are wet but the rain easing we will run our meet but with a modified program to ensure safety of athletes - this normally means we would not run high jump or hurdles, where the risk of injury is greatest. We may be forced to cancel a meet if the grounds have received heavy rain on the Friday before a meet if the grounds become to wet to run on.

We will let people know of any cancellations via Facebook and on our website. Make sure you like our Facebook page to get all notifications. 

Fingers crossed the rain stays away for this week!

GUNLAC TRAINING STARTS THIS THURSDAY!

10/16/2016

0 Comments

 
Our first training session for the season is this Thursday at 5.15pm. Our new coaching coordinator Simone Jordan will be running the session along with Matt Wecker, which is a coach from the Senior Athletics Club North Canberra Gungahlin Athletics. For our first session Matt will be taking athletes Under 9 and older for High Jump, with junior athletes focusing on Shot Put and Discus (following warm-up). Check out all the details on our Training page on this website.

We are currently looking for more parent help for our training sessions - if you are able to help you can contact Simone by email or speak to her on Thursday afternoon. 

Parents - you must stay with your athlete during practice, as we are not covered by insurance to coach without a responsible adult present.

Only Three sleeps until the start of the 2016-17 Season! Week 1 program is now available to view.

We will commence with announcements at 9am. From Week 2 onwards we will run four events for Under 6s and 7s and five events for all other age groups.
