Doncaster Newsletter
Round 9 – 05/02/2022
With Doncaster unable to make the playoffs, the pressure was off, but DAC athletes still turned up to compete. We finished sixth in Premier Division and the men’s and women’s under 14 teams finished second in the state, an admirable effort.
The highlight of the day was another Australian record to evergreen Jim Poulter in the Pole Vault, unfortunately disallowed as the officials didn’t measure the bar.
Thomas Reynolds was the athlete scoring most for his event with 520 for his 400m. Josh Ascar scored 516 and ran a national qualifying time in just his second attempt at the 2000 steeplechase with Lachlan Marasco 505 for his 800m and Bella Fary 503 for her 1500m. Matthew Parrott scored 497 for his 200m, Jack Dalton 482 for his 1500m, Jochem Bowler 481 for his 400m, Petra Edwards returned from a long injury layoff to score 480 points in long jump and Will Katic scored 474 points and a national qualifying time in the 400m.
Eliza Chivers was our top-scoring athlete with 1171 ahead of Laura McLennan (1119), Paul Mierisch (1117), Kim Peak (1015) and Allegria Basile (1001). Darryl Kilmartin wasn’t far behind with 999. Thanks to all those who helped as officials and team managers.
The last round of AVSL is being held at Lakeside Stadium on Saturday 12th with morning and afternoon sessions available for athletes to enter. Entries close at midday on Wednesday.
Also, a special mention to Stephanie Ratcliffe who competed in the AV Throwers meet at Sandringham on Sunday. Stephanie, who is taking a break from her studies at Harvard University, won the Women’s Hammer with a best throw of 58.81m.
DAC 50th Anniversary
We are excited to be celebrating our 50th anniversary!
The club had hoped to hold the event earlier last year when the club turned 50 in May 2021, however numerous lockdowns and government restrictions due to COVID-19 made things very difficult. The organising sub-committee also tried for November 2021 with the same result. We very much look forward to coming together and celebrating the club’s history over dinner and drinks.
Please save the date, reach out to your long-lost training partners or members, organise a table and join us to celebrate our club’s history!
