MEET 9 - Saturday, 13 December 2025

This weekend is Meet #9 and our final meet for the year before taking a break over Christmas, and returning on Saturday, 10th January (training restarts the following week). Get ready for some Christmas fun! Our Age Group Managers  will be handing every athlete a free Zooper Dooper, and there may even be a surprise visitor making an appearance. Bring the festive vibes by adding a dash of Christmas magic to your outfits—hats, socks, tinsel… (on dress ups, if anyone took home a Banana Head can you please return it to the Geckos fruit bowl via a committee member)
Athletes in the U9+ age groups are encouraged to enter the combined and individual event championships the following weekend to sneak another meet into the year - we hear there’ll be some great athletes to watch on the day and Gungahlin will be running the canteen to help raise money for some new high jump mats.
