It does not take long to run, starting at 9.00am each Saturday and is all over by 10.30am. It is open to all age groups we have athletes as young as five running right up to mums and dads, all are encouraged to compete. VLAA registered athletes from U6 through to U15 have the opportunity to represent Croydon at Region and State levels. Note U6 do not run at State. There is no qualifying for these events so anyone can run, there are fees for these events which are typically around $4 each. We run with other Little Aths Clubs as well as holding theme days and fun competitions such as pyjama day and footy colors day. The season starts on Saturday the 10th of April and includes a BBQ at Town Park Croydon. We run each Saturday until the 7th of August 2010. There is a two week free trial period before you must decide to join or not. Again this year we will be running at three venues, Town Park at Croydon, Durham Road in Kilsyth and Lilydale Lake we will alternate each week between these venues. In addition throughout the season we will be running a couple of times with the Lilydale LAC, each will host the other club at their home tracks. Costs vary depending upon if you are a registered VLAA summer athlete or not: if you are registered with VLAA then our fees are $20 per athlete, if you are not registered with VLAA then it will be $50 (includes VLAA insurance). Fees include BBQ’s throughout the season and a presentation medal at the end of the season. For mums, dads and kids under 5 there is no charge, they are welcome to run however please note they are not covered by insurance.
