ISSUE NO.2 October 2002
NEW COACHES
On Sunday 6th October, we had a number of parents complete their Level 0 Coaches Course. This means that on training nights we can now divide the athletes into their own age groups. Congratulations to the following Level 0 Coaches:
Kathy Bianchi, Courtney Arnold, Brett Suter, Brad Duxbury, Rachel Gettons, Lindsay Stewart, Cassie Hodges and Milton Savva.
We had 3 Level 0 Coaches complete their Level 1 Course. Congratulations also to these coaches;
Bob Dickson, Barry Wenzel and Michael Smolenski.
PIE DRIVE 
A reminder that all pie drive orders and money must be returned to the office by Friday 25th October. Could you please make sure that an athletes name is on the order sheet, as we have quite a few families with the same surname. Thank you once again for your support of the Centre and the athletes.
OTHER CENTRE CARNIVALS
Information about other centre carnivals will be posted on the notice boards. Please check them weekly. If you do wish to nominate please do so through the office. After the carnival can you please let the office know your athletes results, so we can advertise the achievements.
ATTENTION AGE MARSHALLS 
Can all age marshalls please ensure that they write the athletes names on the recording sheets and not the athletes themselves, as the recorders are finding it hard to understand the athletes writing.
Can you please circle the best jump or throw and place then place that distance into the best performance column to the right hand. As well, circle the event at the top, eg. shot put/discus/javelin.
With reference to the high jump result sheets, please mark as follows:- 
o = cleared this height
- = passed at this height
x = failed jump.
Thank you for your co-operation.
ZONE RELAY TRAINING
This season we will be running separate training sessions for Zone relays. These will be on Sundays from 4:00 - 6:00pm, starting on 20th October. Please can all athletes who have nominated for the relays come to the training sessions as it will be more beneficial if the whole team can train as a team.
ZONE RELAY DAY - Sunday 10 November 2002
The Zone Relay day is being held at Evan Marginson Park, Woogaroo St Goodna, with the first event scheduled to commence at 8:30am.
Ipswich is looking after a Long Jump pit all day and will require assistance from parents. If you can help with the running of the Long Jump, please see the office.
To ensure that the day runs smoothly, please take note of the following:-
 Please be at the venue at least 45 minutes prior to your event.
 Please report to the team manager, Mr Neale Rogers, upon arrival.
 Please ensure athletes are in full, correct uniform:- Centre shirt/bodyshirt complete with
registration bib and age label and plain black shorts/runners.
 All age groups must wear shoes. Only Under 14's and 15's mat wear spikes in track relay
events.
 Take plenty of sunscreen, water and a hat.
 Please treat participation in the relays seriuosly as a team is dependant an ALL members being
