Election of 2020/2021 Committee

We are always looking for new committee members to help keep the club running smoothly. We cannot highlight how important it is to have new parents joining the committee to continue the great work done over the past 50 years. There are many opportunities available for us to consider going forward.

Each year the current committee is required to step down to allow the opportunity for passionate families to become involved.  There are a number of committee members stepping down and moving on from their positions at this AGM. For the centre to remain successful and flourish into the future there must be continuity with committee roles and we would like to ask all parents to seriously consider taking on a committee role and contribute to the running of the centre.

For more information about the committee roles please contact President Jason Whittle (0439 347 291). To nominate, please fill in the nomination form Committee Nomination Form and email to the Club’s Secretary, Larissa Honner  secretary@caulfieldlittleaths.org.au

Bayside XC will commence on April 18. Registrations will open early April.

Wondering why your child should participate in Bayside XC? There are many reasons:

• Bayside XC is held over 11 events, at 4 different venues.
• CLAC participate with many nearby Little Aths Centres including Brighton, Sandringham, Oakleigh. South Melbourne, Springvale, Moorabbin, Mentone and more. A great opportunity to make friends with athletes from other centres.
• Distances between 500m-3km for different age groups
• CLAC had the highest number of athletes competing in 2019 with over 80 athletes (let’s beat it in 2020!)
•  Value for money – only $40
•  All registered athletes are eligible to participate in end of season club championships
• Handicap week
• All athletes who compete in 6 or more events are eligible for end of season participation awards or age group champion awards
• Keep fit for all sports, and excellent training for school cross country
• LAVic SMR & State XC events, LAVic State relay events (these are open to all CLAC athletes, not only those who do Bayside XC)
