The 2011/2012 SEASON
The LA season began at Kooyong Park on Saturday October 8 with a come-and-try morning. Whilst a bit overcast the day was enjoyable with quite a lot of new and old faces in evidence.
Fees for the 2011/2012 LA season have been set at $130 (first child), $100 (additional kids) which includes your competition T-shirt.
opened September 1; you should have received a reminder email if you are a returning member (or request to resend/reset your password) to save time completing your details.
Parental guide
Little Aths is not like other sports such as netball, cricket, basketball where paid administratoras & referees oversee activities. It is completely run by parents. To this end two types of assistance is required:
- General assistance in setup, teardown and track related activities - twice in the season.
- Helping out in your childs’ age group. One role is the weekly Age Group Manager (minder); and they (you) need assistance with marking, measuring, raking and controlling. This enables parents to watch and more closely assist their child’s athletic development.
