The tenth round of Shield saw Doncaster return to their home track and this was reflected in increased numbers. Men’s 40+ and Under 14, and Women’s Open, Under 18 and Under 14 scored their highest points for the season. Unfortunately, with a High Velocity meeting the night before, some of the sprinters skipped the individual events, though they did come to support the club in the relays.

Congratulations to Conrad Coumaros and Liam Procaccino on breaking the 48 second barrier in the 400 metres at the High Velocity meeting. Also to Kai Sapolu breaking the under 14 record for the 200 metres hurdles.
