Call Room
- We will follow the same process as Region/State with all athletes required to go to the Call Room 15 minutes before their race is scheduled to start.
- The Call Room will be set up at area 5 (end of front straight) between shotput and the hammer cage area
- Coaches will take all athletes to the Call Room, with ‘Escorts’ to take the kids out to their starting area. Parents will not be allowed to help after athletes enter the Call Room.
Uniforms
- All athletes are required to wear their Knox Centre Uniform (Black & gold either singlet, t-shirt or crop top and plain black shorts). The U8’s can wear their club uniform and do not need to wear a Knox Centre uniform.
- Please make sure athletes have their commonwealth bank name patches pinned to the front of their singlets and the red Coles patch is sewn above the Little Aths Vic logo.
- For U11-17 athletes wearing spikes, these will be checked to ensure they are maximum 7mm and adhere to the guideline found here Guide to Buying and Using Spikes | Knox Little Athletics Centre Inc. (klac23.org.au)
- Note – at EMR/state uniform rules are very strict. Athletes will not be allowed to run with incorrect uniform.
