2019-11-03 All-Schools weekend 2

Doncaster Newsletter

The second week of All Schools at Doncaster saw some impressive running from Doncaster athletes, competing for their schools. Despite the terrible conditions, twenty four DAC athletes competed across seven events over two days with four gold, seven silver and one bronze medal being won. Across two weekends of competition the club has won a total of ten gold, nine silver and five bronze medals which is a phenomenal effort by our juniors! A special mention to Hugh Parrott who upon entering the call room realised he had left his spikes at home! A quick SOS over the track PA system and Luke Sinn generously loaned his spikes to Hugh so he could compete.

AVSL Round 4 – Relays Round + Powerplay

This weekend is the inaugural Relays Round where track events will be contested as relays! The round will also be our powerplay round where our total score will be doubled! The day promises to be exciting and fun and with teams to be pre-entered by DAC across all age groups with on the day entries also being accepted.
Athletes who did not purchase the AVSL/Max Package when registering must purchase an individual shield round 4 entry prior to Wednesday 6th via the AV portal. Athletes who attend and compete on the day can purchase a trial entry, however their relay team will not score points.

We want to strongly urge all members to compete at Doncaster on Saturday so we can get as big a score as possible and to enter a field event where possible. Pre-entries close at midday on Wednesday so please make sure you are entered prior to this.
