This week’s program includes an 8:00 am start for Long Hurdles<\/strong> and an 8:30 am sharp start for the 1500m Race Walk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Athletes must be at the track, warmed up and READY TO COMPETE BY 8:00 AM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Please arrive well before 8:00 am to allow sufficient time to warm up, prepare and report to the event area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 8:00 am is the START TIME \u2013 NOT THE ARRIVAL TIME!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udeb6\u200d\u2640\ufe0f 8:30 AM SHARP \u2013 1500m RACE WALK (U13\u2013U17)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 All U13\u2013U17 Race Walk athletes MUST ARRIVE AT THE TRACK NO LATER THAN 8:15 AM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Athletes need to allow time to warm up, prepare and be ready at the start line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 The 1500m Race Walk will commence at 8:30 am SHARP!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83c\udfc5 8:30 AM \u2013 ALL OTHER PROGRAM B EVENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 All other scheduled events commence from 8:30 am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Athletes and families should arrive early enough to be ready for their first scheduled event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Please check your age group’s program and ensure you are at your event area when required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\ude4b\u200d\u2640\ufe0f\ud83d\ude4b\u200d\u2642\ufe0f PARENT DUTY \u2013 PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are rostered on PARENT DUTY this week, you MUST arrive NO LATER THAN 8:15 AM<\/strong> to sign in, check your duty allocation and assist with setting up the competition areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26a0\ufe0f PLEASE BE AWARE \u2013 THERE IS OFTEN A QUEUE AT THE DUTY SIGN-IN DESK!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 We strongly encourage all parent volunteers to arrive BEFORE 8:15 AM<\/strong> to allow sufficient time to sign in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Please don’t leave your arrival until the last minute, as queues at the sign-in desk can delay you getting to your allocated duty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Once signed in, please make your way promptly to your allocated event area and assist with any setup required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Our officials need parent helpers in position and ready so events can commence on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8:15 am is the LATEST arrival time for parent duty \u2013 the earlier you arrive, the better!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your assistance with setting up and running events is essential to keeping our Saturday competition running smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udea8 IMPORTANT REMINDER TO ALL ATHLETES & FAMILIES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We cannot emphasise enough the importance of arriving early and being ready for your events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advertised times are when events START \u2013 not when athletes should arrive at the track!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our competition program relies on athletes being ready, officials being in place and events starting on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Late arrivals can cause delays that affect other age groups, officials, volunteers and the remainder of the day’s competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please do not assume that an event will be delayed or held for athletes who arrive late.<\/strong> Athletes arriving after their event has commenced may miss the opportunity to compete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We ask all parents and carers to help by making sure their athletes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Arrive at the track with plenty of time to spare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Have their competition uniform, registration patch and equipment ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Complete their warm-up before their event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Know where and when their first event is scheduled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2705 Listen for announcements and follow the directions of officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udc99\ud83d\udc9b A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR PARENT HELPERS & OFFICIALS!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our weekly competition is only possible because of the support of our volunteers and families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By arriving early, signing in for duty promptly and helping with setup, you make a real difference to the running of our program and ensure our athletes have the best possible competition experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please remember \u2013 parent duty is an important part of making Little Athletics work, and we need everyone rostered on duty to be ready to assist on time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
