Come on, you hardy souls. It's Cross Country season. If you are keen to get to Benalla for a great day click here for the entry form and details .   

43 - 05/04/12 - End of Season Awards, Records and What Next ?

Our 2011/2012 track and field season has come to an end. Thanks to all for another great season.

Please click here for the 20112012 season awards and see the Star Athletes link on the left hand side for pictures of the proud Aggregate winners, Halle and Andrew.

Records have also been updated; please see link on left hand side.

Please contact Shane Bicknell (President) via shane@bicknell.com.au to arrange collection of any awards and of course with any input for next season.

We look forward to seeing you all next season and will be in touch from time to time as planning for next season unfolds, and to invite entry for the LA Cross Country events.

Please stay fit and healthy. Perhaps consider weekly cross country running by joining one of the senior athletic clubs ( all of whom cater for junior runners), or if Cross Country is not your go, then perhaps join a local footy club.

One of the initiatives of the Centre next season will be to contact football clubs to suggest their players could benefit greatly from little Aths in the off season. In this reciprocal arrangement for both activities, we invite football clubs to contact us now for publishing of your details which may be of interest to our athletes.
