Round 2 – 20/11/2021

After an encouraging start last round, Essendon, Eaglehawk and Diamond Valley had weight of numbers and we finished sixth, dropping to fifth in the Premier ladder and in danger of missing the playoffs. Please contact the club if you are having difficulty with travel arrangements, as we will be able to help. Round three is being held at Lakeside this Saturday and entries are filling up fast!

Make sure you enter ASAP to avoid missing out. 

It was the junior teams which shone this week, with the Under 14 Men’s team finishing on top of the age group ladder. While our Under 18 and 16 Men and Under 14 Women’s teams finished second. Congratulations and welcome to DAC debutants Alessandra Flynn, Sue Kilmartin, Gabrielle King, Isabella King, Anika Selvaratnam, Charlotte Senior, Nathanael Uecker and Chloe Wenzel. 

Also, congratulations to Nash Chandler (100m Hurdles), Tahlia Grace (Pole Vault), Shakira Harding (90m Hurdles), Rachel White (1500m) and Alessia Wynne (Long Jump and 100m Hurdles) on achieving national qualifying performances for their respective events. 

DAC Christmas Party, Wednesday 15th of December! 

Please save the date for us to celebrate Christmas as a club at Ruffey Lake Park! 

When: Wednesday 15th of December 

Where: Ruffey Lake Park, meet in the car park off Victoria St
Time: 6pm-8pm 

A BBQ will be provided for all members and their families. We ask Women to please bring a salad and Men please bring a dessert. We will also be using this opportunity to formally present our 2020/21 season award winners with their trophies. 

Due to the track resurfacing, we will not be able to conduct the club handicap events. However, we will be able to hold our usual Christmas games including the egg toss, three legged race and musical chairs. 

Uniforms 

We would like to say a big thank you to Alessia Wynne who has stepped in as our new uniforms co-ordinator. If you require new uniform, stock can be viewed on our website under the ‘uniforms’ tab. 

Uniforms will be available to try on and purchase at the track on Monday or Thursday nights.
For more information, please contact Alessia at uniforms@doncasterac.org.au

Entries across separate AVSL venues:  

With AVSL entries for round 4 opening this Wednesday afternoon, we would like to ask athletes to please refrain from entering events across both venues unless you are absolutely certain you can make it to both venues. 

Please select one venue to compete at before entering as this will reduce the number of half empty heats, reduce the likelihood of timetable delays, and reduce the workload on officials calling out for absent athletes.
