New hurdles for athletes
PORT Fairy Little Athletics Club members attempted new personal best times on the club’s new hurdles last Friday night.
In perfect weather conditions, around 70 athletes took advantage of the chance to test themselves on the new hurdles, purchased thanks to a grant from Pacific Blue.
While the wind proved tricky at times, the club was grateful for the assistance of several helpers who made the event run smoothly.
Thanks to all athletes and parent helpers for their support with the track and field events last Friday night for week seven of competition.
Many personal bests, smiles and high fives were seen all around – with long jump, shot put and sprints filling out the night.
Participants also enjoyed drinks and a sausage before heading home.
With the Christmas break fast approaching, families are reminded of the following dates:
Friday, November 28 week eight (program one).
Friday, December 5 week nine (program two) with an early start of 4pm due to Port Fairy’s ‘Carols by the Bluestone.’
Friday, December 12 week 10 of competition (Christmas celebration night – program three, dress in Christmas clothes).
There will be no athletics from December 19 through to January 23.
