Registrations are climbing to an all-time high for 2000 and beyond We had more than 80 athletes showing their wares around the track. With this being our first runs over the Straight Hurdles from 60m to 90m, there were various styles of hurdling techniques on display. For many of our younger and some of the older athletes, it was their introduction to the hurdles. One of our U/6 athletes knocked over at the first hurdle in his lane, stopped and turned around then picked up the hurdle and replaced it into the upright position before continuing the race. U/15 Brenna Clayton lowered her 800m centre record once again, recording 2:50.44 sec.

In the U/8’s Maizie Schulz added 44 centimetres to the centre’s 7 Sling Ball record by throwing 28.84 mts. Another outstanding 800m run was by U/14 Ruby Mould in 2:43.63 sec, the quickest on the day. Ruby has to lower her time below 2.30.00 sec to claim the record and become our all time top female runner for the 800m. Ruby was close to her Personal Best in the triple jump converting leg speed into powerful lift off from the 7 metre board to record her second time over 9m this season with a touch down in the pit at 9.17m. Jordan Davis recorded another qualifying throw for the Australian Youth Championships in the U/15 hammer with 30.81m.

sec and again over the 60m hurdles in 15.05 sec. • U/8 Daniel Nassar clocking 21.13 sec for the 100m and 16.45 sec over the hurdles. • U/10 Abbie Hamilton paced herself well over the 200m in recording 36.25 sec. Also skimming over the 60m hurdles in 13.72 sec. • Jordyn Wesseling (U/11g) looks a good prospect for the 60m hurdles clocking 14.75 sec on her fist up performance. • Adele Lunt (U/11g) returning from two seasons ago, put in a strong run over the 800m in 3:21.42 sec and in the 20m sprinted to the finish line in 35.85 sec. • With Emily Smith joining the U/12 ranks has added extra depth to the U/12’s, this week Emily clocked 35.51 sec for the 200m and 14.63 sec in the hurdles. • Safia-Rose Nassar (U/12) enjoyed her first outing in the 800m by meeting the judges in 3:21.39 sec. • Jordan Williams (U/12) was within a second of the 200m record when he posted 31.06 sec. The record stands at 29.25 sec held by Jeremy Orchard (1988). • Louis Mould (U/12) having his first outing for this season clock impressive time in the 800m run with 2:58.50 sec. Top Field • Molly Vickery (U/6) was with in 2m of the centre record for the Sling Ball by hurling it out to 15.50m. • Piper Fallins (U/7) will be close to the Long Jump Record (2.91m) by end of the season if she keeps on improving on her performances, this week Piper jumped 2.29m. • U/7 Thrower Harriet Perea reached over 21m in the Sling
