**Cross Country Season**

Hi families, the XC season runs from April to August. Our season is shared between Werribee, Brimbank and Williamstown centres, where we host 3 rounds each at our chosen location.

Please refer to the TeamApp notice from 7th March for more information, the distances by Age Group, and the LAVic events & opportunities.

We are seeking your interest by Tuesday 31st March - Please let us know if you're intending to attend the XC meets and whether you can help set up and marshall the course for Altona's rounds. This way we can prepare a duty roster for our 3 rounds. Indicatively (but TBC), the Altona rounds may be the 2nd May, 13th June and 25th July. You can let us know on the TeamApp news item, or by emailing [email protected], or by commenting below. Thanks!

Whoa Jack Rayner! Did you know he’s even a former Altona Little Athlete? If you’ve ever seen him run you know he’s exciting to watch.

There’s lots to be inspired about today.

We said goodbye to a founding member, congratulated current athletes, and now we congratulate Jack Rayner.

Barcelona just witnessed something special. 🇦🇺⚡

Jack Rayner has gone where only one Australian man has gone before — breaking the 60-minute barrier for the half marathon, storming home in 59:51.

Sixth place in a stacked international field.

A new Australian benchmark.
And a massive leap from his previous best of 1:01:01.

Big stage. Big moment. Bigger statement.

Australian distance running is very much alive.

Congratulations from all at the centre, and we wish you all the best in your preparations for Nationals!💛💜

Vale Noel Deller

News comes to our centre of the recent passing of Noel Deller. Noel was a founding member of Altona LAC ( #41) in 1969. His efforts, inclusive of a stint as President, were recognised with Life Membership in 1977.

Active for many years at Centre, Region and State levels, Noel was made Life Governor of the Victorian Little Athletics Association in 1981 in recognition of his enormous contribution to our Little Athletics community.

On behalf of everyone at the centre, we send our condolences to Noel’s family, and acknowledge his many contributions to the club and the sport of Little Athletics in Victoria.
