Knox Little Athletics Centre Inc.

Knox Athletics Club (seniors) are inviting athletes and willing parents to sign up for senior competition at a reduced rate for the rest of the season which includes championships.

Junior members can sign up for only $60 plus the cost of a uniform ($40). We have 5 interclub competitions remaining, plus state and national championships. Membership will also enable you to enter specialist meets.

This can only be done via the club so please contact Brad Krawczyk on 0400 500 626 to make arrangements.

It is with some sadness that Executive Committee announces that Brett Lodding has stepped down as Long and Triple Jump Coach effective from this week.
Brett’s son Jack joined Knox LAC in 2018 and Brett then offered his experience in Long and Triple Jump to support our coaching program. It was encouraging to see so many of our athletes take up Long and Triple Jump training with Brett’s guidance.
Unfortunately for Knox LAC, Brett’s family/work commitments are such that he can no longer coach each week at Knox LAC.
The Executive Committee would like to take this opportunity to thank Brett for his hard work and dedication over the past few years coaching long and triple jump and we wish him all the best for the future.

Changes to Long and Triple Jump
Starting from tonight Steve Morris will take over the long jump coaching at Knox and he will be supported by Liam Mathews.
Please Note: Steve Morris is away this week. Liam will be running long/triple jump this week, with both coaches available for training from next week.

With the above changes the long jump coaching will be as follows:
Mon – 4:30-5:30pm Long Jump
Wed – 5:00-6:00pm Triple Jump
Note: Liam has relay coaching from 4-5 on Wed, hence the time difference from previous weeks.

If you are a parent and are interested in supporting our coaching programs or are looking to become an event coach at Knox LAC please contact our coaching director

A quick thank-you to the families that turned up the working bee on Sunday 7th Feb to get the Knox Track ready for EMR.

A power work was done despite the drizzle and the showers early on. However there is still some work to be completed to make the track look its best for the weekend.

Parents, if you are heading to training this week and you feel like helping out we do need to have the grass edges cut around the track (inside and outside) particularly along front straight and around the bend at discus. You can bring your own edger/line trimmer if you wish and spend a little bit of time cutting edges while your child/ren are training.

A reminder to all Knox LAC athletes wanting to compete at Regionals. If you have not registered for EMR yet, please do so before Midday Today.
You will have been provided the link to the registration portal via email.
Late entries will not be accepted. Make sure you get your registration in before Midday.

The uniform shop will be open on Saturday 10am to 11.30am. If you are competing at EMR and need to purchase uniform, this will be your only chance prior to EMR to purchase your Knox top or if you have ordered online to collect your uniform.

Online orders are preferred. You can order online via KLAC shop and pick the order up on Saturday morning from 10am
