UPDATE for competition on 18 December 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

As it stands, the Covid-19 status of the centre remains unchanged and in the low risk category. Therefore athletics will go ahead in the morning (18 December 2021). As our activities are run across a very large outdoor area it is classed as a low risk environment.<\/p>\n

With no further cases arising at this time, the committee advise that little athletics will proceed as normal tomorrow. Warm-ups 8.30am. Races start 8.45am.<\/p>\n

As per standing policy, if you or your athlete is experiencing even the mildest symptoms, we suggest you undertake a Covid-19 test and not attend the track.<\/p>\n

A reminder to everyone tomorrow, please be mindful of our Covid-19 guidelines, and please remember to QR code upon attendance, wear a mask indoors (including the office), physically distance whenever possible and sanitise.<\/p>\n

As per previous weeks, sanitiser will be stationed at event sites and a Covid-safe officer will be present. See you back at the track in the morning for our final race meet of the year \u2013 before our mid-season break. It\u2019s looking like a warmish morning, so please remember to bring your drink bottles, a hat and protect yourself in the sun. There will be sunscreen at the track. We return on 22 January 2022.<\/p>\n

We have sought advice from DHHS, and the families of the relevant age groups have been notified and have been asked to follow the DHHS guidance.<\/p>\n

We ask all other members to monitor for symptoms, and if necessary, get tested.<\/p>\n

Being an outdoor sport, DHHS advice is that the risk is low, and therefore our meet for this Saturday 18 December is scheduled to proceed as planned at this stage.<\/p>\n
