It’s that time of year again - Cross Country season kick off with our annual Ivanhoe Harriers hosted 6km all-comers handicap!

Saturday March 28, registration at 8:30am, event start at 9:30am. Ivanhoe Harriers host the event each year to kick off the AV Cross Country season so if you are interested in having a run, get on down in time for registrations and we’ll get you an entry and a handicap sorted out.

Location: Eaglemont Tennis Courts car park, The Boulevard, East Ivanhoe.

This is a great way to introduce yourself to the club and the program if you’re thinking of having a go at Cross Country this year. All ages are welcome!

Don’t forget to hang around for the sausage sizzle as well. See you there!

Yesterday Glen Nicholson competed in the Long Jump at the Victorian Masters State Championships at Doncaster, winning the event in a leap of 6.37m. This tops off a great end to the season as Glen also won the National Championships for his age division in Canberra last weekend with a jump of 6.11m.

Having been working through a knee injury and not even being sure it would hold up to the jumping, this is a great outcome for Glen and the Ivanhoe Harriers.

Great effort Glen! There is still some spring in the old man’s legs yet.

(FYI: the silver medal winner did not show for the photo)

Congratulations to the winners of the inaugural Peter Rule Sports Scholarship at Ivanhoe Grammar School! Our own Mike Wallis (cousin to Peter Rule) was onsite to help out with the presentation.

In a recent gathering in the school Board Room, the recipients of the Peter Rule Sports Scholarship, Year 11 students Ruby and Alexander, were joined by their parents and the Principal Gerard Foley to acknowledge their achievements and to meet with Peter Rule’s cousin, Mike Wallis who represented the family on the day.

Mr Wallis was most impressed with the sporting credentials of the two recipients, who have not only competed at the highest level at school but have represented both Victoria and Australia in their respective sports of Volleyball and Kayaking.

We look forward to following the progress of our inaugural Peter Rule Sports Scholarship recipients in the coming years. www.ivanhoe.com.au/scholarships

Round 3 has been cancelled due to weather.

Round 3 Metro Venues have been cancelled.

Due to the rain expected to continue throughout the day, along with expected possible gusts of winds exceeding 60km/h, it has been deemed unsafe for Officials and Athletes to prepare and commence competition at Frankston and Keilor.

This concern also extends to the requirement of electronic equipment to be positioned outside at both Frankston and Keilor which will be exposed to the rain due to the expected wind.

Currently all Country Venues will progress at this stage, with Geelong reviewing their venue at 11am. Scoring will continue for Venues that complete their round. Scoring will be finalised for Round 3 post cancelled events being completed during the Reserve Round in early February.

Entries for the cancelled venues at Keilor and Frankston will be held for the Reserve Round. No additional entries to be accepted for the Reserve Round with venue locations for this to be finalised in the coming weeks.

We appreciate your understanding, and we look forward to hosting the remaining events of Round 3 later in the season.

Harriers past and present: Leo breaking a tough 1500m mark set by Stuart Adderley many years ago. Amazing running Leo! 👏 👏

Back in 1998, Stuart Adderley from the Class of 2001, now Deputy Head of House Lincoln, set the U/15 1500m School Record with a blazing 4:15.00.

Recently, that long-standing mark was broken by Year 8 student Leonardo, who clocked an incredible 4:11.99 at the All Schools Victorian Championships, earning a silver medal.

Leonardo is also in Lincoln House and trains with Ivanhoe Harriers outside of school, just like Stuart did in his youth. A legacy continued, a new chapter written.
