WEEK 3 - Saturday 1st October
NB - This season, our Saturday morning competition will commence at Barton Park, Gladstone St, North Parramatta.  See here for details.

Athletes should meet their Age Manager at their first event.
  • This week we are running Program 2 - see here
  • Optional 3000m:  U13-U17 @ 7:30am - Meet Anita at the finish line by 7:25am
  • Optional U11-U12 Javelin at 11:00am
GROUND SET UP at 7:25am - Athlete Surnames L-O
We need help each week to set up.  Parents are rostered to arrive early on 4-5 mornings through the season.  Please come down before 7:25am to get your name marked off our list.

CANTEEN ROSTER
Each week we need a parent volunteer to help in the canteen from 10:00am - 12:00pm.
This week's volunteer is to be provided by the 8 Boys.

REGISTRATION PACK AND UNIFORM COLLECTION
Saturday 1st October - 7:30am to 8:00am ONLY
The uniform shop will be open for online order pick up only (no new sales) from 7:30-8:00am for orders placed before 6pm Friday 30th September.  Visit the Uniform shop here.

Orders will also be available for pickup from the canteen until 10:00am.

Registration Packs will be available for pick up from 7:30-8:00am.
** Please remember to bring your Working with Children Declaration Form - available here **
**New Members - Please remember to bring your child's proof of age (either Passport or Birth Certificate).**
Registrations cannot be finalised until the above items have been received.

Please note that both our Uniform Officer and Registrar are also Age Managers and will have other duties to fulfil from 8:00am.  We thank you for your understanding.

WET WEATHER
Should it be raining either on Saturday morning or in the days leading up to competition, the Committee will assess the field and competition conditions.  We will either run a Wet Weather amended program or, if the weather is too bad, we may cancel competition for the day.

If the decision is made to cancel, this information will be posted on both the Facebook and Instagram pages by 7:30am.  So, keep an eye on these pages.  If no announcement is made, then assume we are on!

CANTEEN, BBQ AND COFFEE VAN
The Coffee Van will again be present for that lovely morning hot beverage. 

Unfortunately, there will be no BBQ this Saturday; however, the canteen will be open for cold drinks and yummy snacks!

WE NEED YOUR HELP

DATA ENTRY HELPERS

Are you handy on a computer?  We are looking for some volunteers to help with data entry on Saturday mornings.  If you are able to help, please email [email protected] or see one of the committee members (in the blue shirts) on Saturday morning.

Please remember that Little Athletics is run by volunteers and we need your help every Saturday to make it work & deliver a quality program.

Each Age Manager requires the help of four parents to assist with the running of an age group.  This involves raking the sand, retrieving the shot/discus in throws and assisting to marshal athletes at the finish line following running events both sprints and long distance. All these jobs are simple to do but are a huge help, making the morning run smoother and reducing the delay between events.

If you see ANYTHING - on or off the field - that you can help with, please jump in and help.  It will be greatly appreciated.

Please give your time generously to help with set up, pack up, timing and canteen shifts and helping out your age manager. Every little bit helps.

​WEEK 6, Saturday January 8th at 8:15am:

NB - This season we are running our Saturday morning competition at Barton Park, Gladstone St, North Parramatta.  See here for details.

Due to the current condition of the track, competition for this Saturday 8th January has been cancelled!

ZONE PARENT DUTY SIGN UP
To run the Zone Championships the carnival needs 698 Parent Helpers. They are all parent volunteers like you.

A proportion of these jobs are allocated to our club and we must fill them. They are all simple jobs that don't require any event specific expertise. A description of the duties is HERE.

As such, it is compulsory for all parents to do a duty for each child competing at Zone, so add your name to the roster for a time that best suits your family commitments that weekend.  If you have not yet signed up and your child has nominated for Zone, please do so by 5:00pm Monday 10th January, or your child's Zone nomination will not be able to be finalised.

WE STILL HAVE 56 PARENT DUTIES THAT ARE YET TO BE FILLED!
If you have already signed up but are available for additional duties, please sign up for a further duty.  The carnival cannot run without your help.

For the Parent Sign Up Portal, click here.
For the Zone Program, click here.
​
*NB: Parent helpers - You must wear closed shoes while on the oval ( NO bare feet / thongs / sandals). Remember to wear a hat and take a drink bottle with you on the oval. Start times are definite.
Please sign in with our Team Managers, 30minutes before your duty  Finish times are a bit of a guess and are based on finish times of your events.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS - CHANGE OF DATE
As previously advised, due to changes in the Athletics Australia competition schedule, the scheduled date for the LANSW State Championships has been changed. 

The State Championships are now being held on Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th March 2022 at Sydney Olympic Park Athletic Centre (SOPAC).

The current COVID-19 situation in Greater Sydney has provided many challenges for us as we look towards the 2021/2022 Little Athletics season.  

REGISTRATIONS POSTPONED
In light of the recent announcement of a further extension to the stay-at-home orders for Greater Sydney, LANSW have made the decision not to open registrations on the 30th August as previously advertised.

No new opening date has been set, with LANSW opting to hold off on announcing any new date until there is confidence in a start date for the 2021/2022 athletics season.

We will keep you up to date on any decisions as they are made.

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
While we wait for registrations to open, we encourage you to register your interest in the upcoming season.  

You can do so by providing your details via the LANSW website HERE

Don't forget to list North Rocks Carlingford as your preferred centre.

KINGSDENE OVAL UPDATE
As mentioned previously, Parramatta Council are building a new clubhouse at Kingsdene Oval (also known as Peggy Womersley Reserve).  Further details and plans of the project can be found HERE.

Following a number of delays, this project is now going ahead, with a commencement date set for mid-September and continuing through to at least March 2022.

As a result of these construction works, it is unfeasible for us to use Kingsdene Oval for Saturday morning competition this coming season.  Following liaison with Parramatta Council and Parramatta Little Athletics Centre, we will be holding Saturday competition for the 2021/2022 athletics season at Barton Park, Gladstone St, North Parramatta (see here for map).

Wednesday and Thursday night training sessions will remain at Kingsdene Oval.

NRCLAC Presentation Day was held on Sunday at Murray Farm PS.

I was honoured to welcome our distinguished guests:
  • Councillor Andrew Jefferies, City of Parramatta Council
  • North Rocks Carlingford Little Athletics Centre Life Members: Tony Kish, Mary O’Byrne, Glenys Atkins, Peter Blackett, Martin Horwood, Jan Andrews, and Garry Dennis.
  • Committee Members
  • Athletes, families, and friends

North Rocks Carlingford Little Athletics Centre’s Presentation Day is a time for celebrating the achievements of our club and our athletes, as well as publicly acknowledging the fantastic volunteers that make it all possible. 

This time last year, COVID was just kicking off, forcing the last-minute cancellation of State Championships and our Presentation Day. COVID rolled on, shortening this season by a couple of weeks, our membership numbers were limited, Zone and Regional Championships were cancelled, and we couldn’t do any of the more social activities at the oval. 

Considering these COVID restrictions, I think we still had a successful season. We had 387 athletes achieve 6,361 PBs, which is similar to 2019 season. Our athletes broke 56 records, which is itself a record, the most ever in a season. Despite our reduced numbers, our average attendance was actually higher than last season. We had 36 athletes represent the club at State Championships, which is a record, bringing home 11 medals, which is a great result.

A successful season doesn’t happen without a lot of work from a lot of good people. On behalf of the Committee, I’d like to thank our Age Managers, Coaches, Starters, Timekeepers, Qualified Officials, Canteen Managers, BBQ chef, Team Mangers, Photographer, and Data Manager.

In particular, I’d like to thank our Committee for all their work. Some notable achievements this season:

We’ve grown the Committee to 17 energetic members, and I’m confident they’re a vibrant group that will see the Club strengthen in seasons to come. 
  • We’re in a strong financial position through new sponsorships and grant money.
  • We have refreshed a lot of equipment this year, meaning our athletes have the best of everything.
  • We qualified new Coaches through the Introduction to Coaching Course.
  • We qualified all our Age Managers through Level 1 Officiating courses.
  • We raised $400 in gold coin member donations for the Clontarf Foundation, an indigenous education charity.

I’d like to acknowledge the history of the club and express appreciation for the ongoing support and contributions of our Life Members. Thank you.

I’d like to thank our sponsors for their ongoing support:
  • Carlingford Bowling Club
  • Physio Fitness Castle Hill
  • The Athlete’s Foot
  • The Vikings Sports Club
  • Johnston’s Transport
  • Carlingford Gourmet Pizza
  • Baker Crescent Meats
  • And thank you to Coles Carlingford Court for supplying produce for the BBQ on the day

We value these relationships, thank them for their contribution, and are pleased to have them as members of our community.

As a club, we have been very fortunate to have dedicated people who’ve gone above and beyond as volunteers. On behalf of the Committee, and the Club, it was my honour to present the following people with Merit Awards for Outstanding Service to North Rocks Carlingford Little Athletics Centre:
  • Annika Tilt
  • Carwyn Potbury
  • Shannon Kavanagh 
  • Adam Price 
  • Joe Shahla
  • Philipa Gately
Annika, Carwyn, Shannon, Adam, Joe, and Pip have been great friends of North Rocks Carlingford Little Athletics Centre. Thank you. Carwyn, Shannon, (and myself) have also been nominated for Life Membership, to be voted on at our 2021 AGM.

Presentation Day is a celebration of results. However, it really doesn’t matter whether we win or lose. More importantly, what makes North Rocks Carlingford Little Athletics successful, is the time we get to spend together, the community we build, and the friendships we make on the way. Thank you for coming together as a community.
