Whilst there is no timing on this day, it is a great opportunity to reunite with friends, enjoy our abridged program and experience on-track skills based games for our u6 athletes.
There is no age group rostered on for the Come and Try Day but we need all hands on deck for set up from 7:45am and pack down from 11:00am.
2. Age Group Managers
Thank to those members who have already volunteered to manage an age group for the 2018/19 season. To ensure a successful start to the season, we are seeking Age Group Managers for the following age groups:
- U6 Boys
- U8 Boys
- U9 Girls
- U11 Girls and Boys
- U12+ Girls
Remember : No Age Group Manager = No events
Age Group Managers are responsible for providing an environment where young athletes learn and develop. Age Group Managers take their group of athletes to each of their events, make sure the athletes understand each event and line them up ready to go. Each Age Group Manager is supported by parent helpers each week.
If you are able to assist, please contact Kristen Davey at Kristen.davey@gedeonrichter.com.au

Relays also allow athletes and their families to form lasting friendships that are crucial to the development of all athletes. The centre always performs well in relays, both at a Regional and State level. Our athletes enjoy competing in teams and cheering on club mates. Training is conducted on Sunday mornings from 9am at Righetti Oval commencing 14 October. Our first competition will be at a Box Hill Friendly Meet on Sunday, 28 October.
