WEEKLY UPDATE
Well…. What another HUGE week its been in the Little Athletics Victoria World!!
GCR TRACK AND FIELD CARNIVAL UPDATE
As you may have all seen, the GCR Track and Field Carnival will now take place NEXT weekend, Saturday Feb 27th – Sunday Feb 28th. The program and the Parent Duty roster will remain the same! We will re-post again throughout this week to remind everyone.
With Region being pushed back to next week our twilight program for next Friday night will now be POSTPONED, meaning there will be NO COMPETITION at Casey Fields on Friday 26th February. We are currently looking at holding this Twilight at a later date in the year! Stay tuned for this to be announced!
Region Relays will no longer be happening with all teams now progressing straight through to state! More on relays will be relayed to all entrants at this Sunday’s training session at Casey Fields.
WEEK 13 UPDATE
This week is STILL going ahead as normal! We do ask that EVERYONE over the age of 12 years old is carrying a mask on them, that must be worn when you cannot socially distance
Early Starts were posted onto social media this morning
U14-16 Boys and Girls 1500m, U12B Long Jump & U10B High Jump will all start at 8am. Please be there ready to go at 7.55am!
On Monday we also posted new STRICT rules in regards to entering the arena. This will be enforced this week – if you are not wearing a vest or not asked by a committee member to assist you MUST NOT cross over the fence. You are more than welcome to follow your child around outside of the track fence line – all events are viewable from the fence.
Ross and his team will again be up on the mezzanine with our medal engraver! So if you have any medals lying around that need engraving please take in up to see Ross and his team!
PARENT HELPERS STILL NEEDED FOR THIS WEEK
We still require a lot of parent helpers this week! Remember you need to hit 30 parent points for your child/ren to be eligible for an end of season award. Point update will be available by the mezzanine on Saturday.

Hi Everyone,
Just a few reminders for the weekend.
Duty Roster
When signing up, one of the conditions is that you agree to perform Parent Duty. We have a lot of athletes entered so that means a lot of duties. It is imperative that we all turn up to their duty. We have spread everyone as far as we could. Please don’t let the centre down and more importantly our kids.
If you fail to do your allocated duty you risk your child being Disqualified from Region, Loss of Parent Points and missing out on future State/Centre Events. Parents on duty MUST wear closed-toe footwear for safety reasons. All duties MUST be conducted by someone who is 18 years or older.
With the U6-8 Carnival, we have only been given a few duties to assist Berwick with the day!
JUNIOR CARNIVAL DUTIES
Where to go?
This Weekend is at Edwin Flack Reserve on Manuka Rd, Berwick (behind Football Ground). Please allow extra time to arrive due to Roadworks on Clyde Rd and Monash Freeway.
The best way to go will be either Princess Hwy or via Soldiers Road.
Athletes MUST arrive 45mins before their event or at least 15mins before your Duty so we know you are here.
For the Junior Carnival please arrive before 10 am for marshalling etc.
Berwick will appoint a few families duties for the junior carnival, these will be up on social media later in the week.
We will have our Marque’s set up for everyone to use just inside the gate. Please your own seating – Deck Chairs, Rugs etc…

This event is over 2 days but is jammed packed so please have your child around the Cranbourne Marquees 30 mins before they are due to marshal. Our team managers will make sure they get to their event. If you are not at the marquee’s your child will risk missing their events.
Please Note: As this event is run by the Gippsland Country Region, personal bests and Cranbourne records will not count this week.
GO CRANBOURNE!!!
