The forecast temperature for Melbourne and suburbs this Saturday is expected to reach 40 deg and remain high into the night. As a result, the Knox Little Athletics centre has cancelled the Knox Open Day to ensure we comply with the extreme hot weather policy and consider the safety of athletes and officials.
At this stage re-scheduling is unlikely, therefore entry fees will be reimbursed. Knox Little Athletics apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
As a result of the total fire ban and the event being cancelled, the fireworks has also been cancelled.
We would like to thank the organisers who put in hours of work organising the event and we know they will be disappointed as a result of not running. We also understand there may be disappointed athletes who were looking forward to participating in this popular event.
