Henry helped a fellow athlete who had fallen during the hurdles. We love seeing our athletes look out for one another! 🙌

Volunteers

Athletics can’t happen without the support of our parents and carers, and all families are required to volunteer a minimum of 3 duties per season. But don’t worry, we have a chief in charge at each event who will show you what is required and be there to help all the way through the day.
