24.01.2022 WE NEED BBQ HELP! We would love to offer you more food in the canteen but for this to happen we need some help cooking! You wont need to serve in the canteen, just be available to cook sausages and burgers for us from 5.30-6pm This will count as a parent help so please let us know if you can help us out, we have some hungry athletes and parents!

24.01.2022 UNIFORM UPDATE Unfortunately weve had a delay in the delivery of new uniform stock, due to COVID things are taking a little longer and our delivery is held up in transit, we are hoping to have them by next Friday night. In the meantime, those that need uniform can still compete, please bring safety pins to pin the registration number to your shirt.

23.01.2022 Happy Fathers Day to all our athletics dads, we hope you have a wonderful day!

22.01.2022 The health and safety of our athletes is top priority for us, there are restrictions in place and guidelines we must follow. One of the most important ones is social distancing. We need to make sure parents and caregivers are following the guidelines as well. Please remember when at long jump that only the age marshal and 3 helpers are in the pit. This week as well as long jump, we will be running triple jump and high jump, with these events comes some older athletes that h...ave a long and fast run up to the pit. For the safety of everyone we will be roping off the long jump pit along with high jump. We had a couple of accidents last season when younger athletes and parents crossed in front of other athletes during their run up and near the pit. Spectators will still be able to watch their athletes compete but only those helping will be allowed on the tartan. Thank you for your cooperation See more

21.01.2022 Tonights the night!! Some information to ensure a smooth transition for checking into the 2020/21 season!! Please enter the grounds from the main carpark, through the canteen area (see map)- use the EVA CHECK-IN APP Please make sure you have downloaded the App ready to check in.... Exit the check in area at the other end of the canteen (see map) and * head down to the meeting area. (Only the Age Marshall will be writing on the recording sheets so please advise your childs Age Marshall when you arrive.) or * if you need to complete your registration (please register and pay online before heading down) go over to the club house. Please ensure all adults consciously social distance from each other for the night and remember if youre feeling unwell or are showing symptoms, please stay at home

21.01.2022 A few housekeeping notes to remember for Friday nights. Once you arrive, please scan the QR code or write your name on the contact tracing folder, these are located outside the canteen. Please inform the age marshal that your athletes are here, they can then tick their names off or add them at the bottom if they are not yet on the sheet.... Once youve had your athletes names checked off, please ask them to stay in their age groups, it would be very helpful if, especially the younger age groups, were to be sitting on the ground, in their age groups. Parents, once the athletes have gone for their warm up, please stay outside the canteen, there are important notices to be heard, this is the ideal time to take in any information. There are a couple of important notices coming tomorrow night. Please remember that unless your age group has all its helpers, you will not be allowed to move off to your first event. Uniforms are only for sale up until 6pm, we need to get to our events as much as you do. Remember if you are feeling unwell, please stay at home.

20.01.2022 Please download the EVA check-in app, this is free for both Apple and Android. All athletes and their parents will need to sign in each Friday as part of our Covid safe plan. Once youve signed up and created an account with all your names, each Friday all you need to do is scan the QR code at the club and youre ready to go! Athletes that are not signed in with their parents will not be allowed to compete, this is a very simple process and needs to be followed as per government guidelines, especially as we are now under more restrictions.
