This week athletes will be working on Javelin:
We need adult helpers for each group to assist with retrieving throw implements and make sure kids are lining up and behaving in a safe manner. The schedule for the rest of the season can be found on our Training page. We’ve made it to our 4th Athletics meet. There was some exciting news confirmed this week about Gungahlin Athletics Club getting a guest appearance at our Coles Community Round next weekend.
