Welcome to the 2011/12 season of the Cootamundra Little Athletics club. We are anticipating a brilliant season.

 

Your child is in a sport that provides an opportunity for many immediate and long-term benefits. The benefits include higher levels of fitness, better health, a pleasurable social environment, and the satisfaction derived from skilled performances. Little Athletics can provide a launching pad for a life-long involvement in sport, whether it be elite or purely recreational. So we thank you for registering your children and trust you will enjoy your time with us.

 

Our evenings begin at 5.20pm for a warm up session, with competition starting at approximately 5.30pm. Competitors are encouraged to be on time, and are reminded to bring along a bottle of water to rehydrate regularly.

 

Little Athletics is more than a sport - it's a 'family movement' in which Mum, Dad, and the children can do something together. Parents are involved as voluntary helpers and officials, and are a very important part of the whole operation running smoothly and effectively. As a parent/carer of the participating child, you will be required to help on a roster system. The tasks that are asked are simple, like recording results, time-keeping, and measuring throws or jumps. The children also love having their mums and dads being interested and involved.

 

It is a NSW Little Athletics Association policy that a parent/guardian from each family is to be present at the grounds whilst your child or children are attending Little Athletics. Parents/carers are required to be in attendance at all times - children will be unable to participate without an adult present.

 

Sausage sandwiches will once again be available to buy at the end of the night - why not stay for the barbecue and have a night off cooking?  Water, soft drinks, fruit boxes and ice blocks will also be available from the kiosk.

 

Uniforms: As they become available, various second-hand singlets, shorts and bodysuits will be able to be purchased from the kiosk. If you have any unused articles of uniform that you would like to donate, please contact a committee member. Thankyou!

 

It isn't too late for new registrations, so if you have family or friends who are interested in being involved, please let them know that they are welcome. The cost of registration is $50 per child.  Proof of age must be supplied at time of registration, so a copy of your child's birth certificate or hospital blue book will need to be sighted.  Please contact the registrar.

 

Well, that's all for now! We are hoping to update this website regularly, so if you have anything you would like to be included, please contact the publicity officer. Wishing you all a great athletics season! Most importantly, have fun, and encourage your children in all areas of competition and sportsmanship.
