FRIDAY'S PROGRAM SHARKS UNLEASHED UPCOMING CARNIVALS

Good evening Sharkies.

Apologies to all who attempted the Championship Walks last Friday night - due to administrative issues, we will need to re-run the walks during the Centre Evening on Friday, 6 March.

Have you checked in with Suzy and the canteen team? Suzy has been preparing some great home cooking, and this week sees Katsu Chicken Curry (Japanese Curry) on the menu - at $8 it's VERY filling but get in quick as they do sell out.

This weekend is a big one, with our major regional competition - Regional Championships being held at SAF (QE2 at Nathan)

LAQ HART SPORT SOUTH EAST REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS

Good luck to all 90 athletes competing at this weekend's Regional Championships.

We did email all participating so if you did not receive an update this week - please reach out. HOW CAN YOU HELP? Even if you don't have any athletes competing, it would be great to see you there supporting your friends and Springwood.

As a centre, we are responsible for officiating the Track, including Starts. If you can, have a think about joining in for a few hours by:

Join the start crew for a block (or two).
Hurdle set up/pack up and movement (Sat 8 AM - 100m to 80m Hurdles; 11:30 AM - 200m and 300m Hurdles, and Sun 8:30 AM - 60m Hurdles)
Supporting track umpires in monitoring races for infringements - through the weekend.
Observing the break line for 800m races (Sat 1:00 PM and Sun 8:00 AM)

INCENTIVE ALERT !!!!!

For each block of time a parent volunteers, they will receive a TICKET into a draw to win a Sharks Supporter shirt + a $50 Coles gift card! This will be drawn on Sunday night, and parent/s will be notified by email.

More help = more tickets = better chances to win!

Throughout the weekend, calls for "Springwood Parents" will be made over the PA, and our Sharks Team Managers will also be reaching out for track helpers. Feel free to let us know now if you can help as well!

Sharks Team Managers will send each volunteer out on the track with a cold bottle of water for each block they help with. Just don't forget to bring your hat!

We can’t do it without you! Even a little time makes a big difference.

Thank you for being part of our Sharks family and helping make this event a success!

FRIDAY'S PROGRAM

This Friday, we will be short on key helpers as we prepare for a long weekend at the South-East Regional Championships.

If you can, please assist on the track and/or hang around at the end of the evening to help pack up the equipment.

I have added an OPTIONAL 800m at the end of the program, if anyone wants another run. For U8s, if you would like to try an 800m, Friday is your chance!
