23.01.2022 Merry Christmas from the Committee and members of LETR SA. What a wonderful 2019 we had, we travelled far and wide around our State, and had representatives travel to Abu Dhabi and Victoria. The wonderful SA athletes brought back medals from World Games, competed in regional and State games. LETR SA has grown, with SAPOL representatives in Port Pirie and Mt Gambier, and having programmes kick off and local support. We have AFP and RAAF Police support. We have also had wo...nderful support from South Australia Metropolitan Fire Station Adelaide, SA Ambulance Service and SA Country Fire Service. Local icons, Adelaide Oval and the Adelaide Zoo, are also wonderful supporters. 2020 looks to be a very exciting year with further growth into regional areas, we will also be sending off SA Juniors to the Junior National Games in Launceston later in the year. Enjoy the festive season, train hard, enjoy your friends, and strive to be better.

23.01.2022 Wonderful news, the National Junior games are on, October 2021, Athletes, Get ready, start training, burpees at home, sprints around the backyard, lift some items in the back yard, your time to shine is still available and will be here before you know it. Then a short break before the Nationals the following year. Look out Tasmania, the South Aussies are coming. We will shower you with good sportsmanship, wonderful friendships and a desire to do our best.
