YARRA RANGES ATHLETICS
YARRA Ranges Athletics is only two weeks into the track and field season and club records are already being broken.
This includes both at Saturday morning Little Athletics and at the afternoon AV Shield where our senior team competes.
A fantastic turnout of the younger athletes on Saturday morning took advantage of some very healthy tail winds to record some excellent results in many events.
It was fantastic to see some great numbers in each age group making the competitive and social side of athletics so much more enjoyable.
A big thanks to all the helpers, team leaders and others helping when asked.
Without your help and support, the club would not be able to produce the fun event and atmosphere that they do.
The senior team competed in very windy conditions at Nunawading on Saturday afternoon.
Despite the wind, the club had another strong showing of athletes across the various age groups compete.
Well done to everyone who competed and welcome to the new athletes, Martin, Daniel and Olivia.
Results are not yet available, but after a strong showing in Round 1, the club is hopeful of continuing this week.
Next week, the senior team compete in Round 3 at Aberfeldie while our Little Athletics competition continues from 8am on Saturday.
Many club athletes have made it through the to the Victorian School Sport Victoria Track and Field Championships.
