Clarence Little Athletics Centre

What an amazing way to finish off the 2019/20 Season with a CLAC guard of honour for our U15 athlete (with U14s accompanying him) for the final 100m. From the look of the PBs it seems that our U6s also enjoyed the extra attention – thank you to every member for putting on such a display for our athletes.

Among the huge amount of PBs there were also 2 final Local Records for the Season. Congratulations to:
U14 Boys 200m – Blake H 26.5s (his own previous 26.7s)
U12 Girls Triple Jump – Maighan A 9.27m (previous 8.98m set just the jump before by Mackenzie G)

THANK YOU once again for everyone who stepped up to volunteer at our last Champs Meet. It ran like clockwork – well done!

What a beautiful night for our make up meet! Seems the athletes used our Athletes Choice Day on Saturday to warm up for some big PBs and RECORDS tonight…..
Congratulations to:

Palepa L U10 400m 1:14.2s

Archie D U12 Shot Put 11.39m

Jessica B U14 Discus 32.88m

Lucy W continued her hot form with a new 6G Shot Put record 4.44m

Congratulations to the 139 Clarence Athletes we had competing in cold conditions at our Meet yesterday (always a good idea to put your hand up for Canteen volunteer on a day like that) but the weather did not stop our Super Athletes as they smashed out a total of a whopping 149 PBs for the day!
A special congratulations to Lucy Whitelaw who made the most of the conditions with a Vortex throw of 12.90m, breaking the U6 Girls Record that has stood for 18 years (11.83m) – a huge achievement!

Congratulations to Archie Devine for smashing the U12 Boys Shot Put Record at our meet yesterday. Old record 9.18m new record a whopping 11.09m!!
We had a few Outside Records also broken at the Southern Centre Challenge last Sunday:Lucy Whitelaw equalled the U6 Girls 70M Record 13.9 AND went on to break the U6 Girls Vortex outside record with 10.31m.

For the U14 Boys the competition was fierce with 3 boys breaking the outside Shot Put Record, well done to Bailey Merrett (9.07m) and Charles Leesong (9.49m), while Darcy Noonan finally grabbed the record with a shot of 10.6m (old record 9.04m) Well done boys!
Shot Put was also in close contention in U12 Boys at the SCC with Xavier Leauma breaking the outside record with 8.69m (old record 8.62m).

HEAPS of PBs were also raining through both the SCC and our last meet – our athletes are on fire!!!! And it is fantastic to continue to see some brand new faces to CLAC – welcome!

THANK YOU to our new volunteers – wow have you guys really stepped up?!?! THAT is what makes our Club a stand out – pat on the back to you all.
