Team Mustangs were announced as the 2022 club v club champions after competition two weekends ago, with a dominant team performance against other Yarra Ranges Athletics teams from Comets, Redbacks and Jaguars.

This week was the opportunity for athletes to show off their individual skills at the combined events championship.

Athletes compete in pre-selected events where their performance accumulates points based on an event point stable.

The athlete with the most points is the winner.

Final results for each age group will be known next week, but are sure to be close based on the effort and enjoyment on display.

Next week sees our little athletics team competing at the EMR region Relay Championships in Ringwood.

Good luck to all the athletes competing. Our U6-U8 athletes will enjoy a fun evening of athletics fun on Friday night from 5.30pm

Our senior team will welcome athletes from around Melbourne to round 6 of AVSL being held at our home track in Mt Evelyn.

We look forward to a big turnout of athletes and helpers to make the day fun, enjoyable and successful.

If you, or someone you know, wants to join in the Little Athletics fun registration is at www.lavic.com.au.

Training is available to all club members on Tuesday & Thursday evenings from 5.30pm and on Thursday afternoons from 4.00pm for our Under 12 athletes.

Yarra Ranges Athletics welcomes and encourages all athletes of any age or ability. For information on training, how to join or trial, photos, results and updated news, visit the website at yarrarangesathletics.org.au or check us out on Facebook. Run, Jump, Throw…too easy!
