Hi Reddy Little A's families,

While we're all home with time on our hands, thinking to what comes after life returns to 'normal', let's talk about OUR club. At this stage the aim is for our 2020/21 sign on days to be August 7th, 14th and 15th, with orientation day on 21st and start on 28th. AGM and Trophy day dates to be advised.

🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️If you've got a little athlete, especially in the younger age groups (12's and under) please consider joining the committee. WAIT.. don't go.. keep reading.... you see, any club can only function with committee members.

💲💲💲 Did you know as a committee member your $50 parent levy is automatically deducted at sign-on - no waiting til end of season. Save $50 up front and get a say in how the club is run.

🏋️‍♀️The more members we have on the committee the less work for everyone, and the better for the club. If your athlete is in those younger ages, you'll no doubt be a part of this club for a good 5 to 10 more years. Why not jump right in.... remember we are the founding Little Athletics club in Queensland - something to be proud of and preserve. 🏆

👉 At every AGM all positions become vacant, however awesome committee members return year after year to fill their positions. This year sees some of our committee, whose children have long grown-up and no longer Little Athletes, leaving us. This means we need YOU. Yes, YOU.

Please take a look at the below positions. These are ones that we NEED to fill. Without a Secretary and Treasurer (who form the Executive committee along with the Centre Manager) we can not have a club. Who will step up? The other positions need someone to step up too. Which one suits you best?

You can download the PDF of all role descriptions here: www.redcliffelittleathletics.org.au/download/committee-position-role-descriptions/

Each role description goes with the committee member role description too so there's the main role and the general committee member duties which become far less when there's more of us :) Many hands make light work. Come on board....we have snacks! 🥯🧀🥮🍪☕️

🤸‍♂️Equipment Officer
👩‍🔬First Aid officer
🙋‍♀️Uniform Officer
🦹‍♂️Fundraising Officer
🤾‍♂️Registrar

With no athletics going on around the country at the moment, we are encouraging the community to show us what they're doing at home to fill the space that no athletics has made.

** Trophy Presentation Day and AGM update **

We trust you are all staying safe and well, and finding ways to keep your athletes entertained and engaged while avoiding other people during this time.

The committee has decided not to cancel but instead to postpone the Trophy Presentation day. As with anything at present, the date is to be determined by Government directives - however we anticipate around the time of sign-ons for 2020/21 season.

The AGM will also be postponed until we get further guidance from LAQ who look to Government directives. This includes the refunds of parent levy (which you can opt to use at sign-on day next season).

For now, we all just wait..... However, please add the following dates to your diaries.

2020/21 Season:

SIGN-ON:
Friday August 7th 6 – 8 pm

Friday August 14th 6 – 8 pm

Saturday August 15th 2 – 4

ORIENTATION NIGHT
Friday August 21st

START OF SEASON
Friday August 28th

Stay safe and healthy everyone. We'll be posting some season flash backs on Facebook over the next month to help keep the boredom at bay. ... See MoreSee Less
