HEALTH PARTNERS STATE RELAY CHAMPIONSHIPS
SUNDAY 12 FEBRUARY
SA ATHLETICS STADIUM
This season’s State Relay Championships were a huge success for GGLAC with our athletes winning 10 Gold (including the Mums), 3 Silver, 5 Bronze as well as setting 9 Centre Best Performances and 2 State Best Performances!
Firstly big thanks must go to the two Jodies for putting the teams together, following up parents and finding late substitutions to make sure we had as many teams and athletes competing as possible.
Secondly, thanks to our coaches Grahame, Craig and Scott for holding training sessions over the past few weeks and on the day motivating and warming up the athletes and marshalling them on time. We can not thank you enough.
Without the dedication, enthusiasm and time invested from all these people and the Committee, today wouldn’t have been the success it was. Thanks to all the parents for getting your athletes there on time, it makes our day a lot less stressful.
Finally, thanks to all our athletes that competed, no matter what your result, remember you did your best, the Club proud and we hope you all enjoyed the experience.
GGLAC placed 2nd on the Pam Sard Champion Centre Table with 158 points. This is our best placing and most points since winning the Shield in 2006. We were also 3rd on the Most Improved Trophy.
