OUR PHILOSOPHY 🔥

At Rip ’N’ Tear Athletics, we love athletics and we want to coach athletes who love the sport too.

We’re not interested in simply finding the best athletes and putting our name beside their results.

We want to build athletes.
We want to be there from the beginning from the first time a dream starts to form, when an athlete says, “I want to make State,” “I want to go to Nationals,” “I want to throw further,” or simply, “I want to get better.”

From that first dream, through the training sessions, the setbacks, the PBs, the nerves, the disappointments and the big moments, we want to be part of the journey.

For us, success isn’t only measured by medals, placings or qualifying standards.

It’s measured by improvement.
💥 Running a PB
💥 Throwing a little further
💥 Learning how to handle disappointment
💥 Building confidence
💥 Becoming more resilient
💥 Learning to compete under pressure

Because some of the biggest improvements an athlete can make don't happen on the track, runway or throwing circle.

They happen between the ears.

We want athletes to dream big but we also want to teach them what it takes to chase those dreams.

The discipline to turn up.
The courage to fail.
The patience to keep working.
And the resilience to get back up when things don't go to plan.

Some athletes will go on to win State medals.
Some will compete at Nationals.
Some may achieve things they never thought possible.
Others will simply become a better athlete and a stronger person than they were when they first walked into training.

Every one of those journeys matters to us.

A huge day at the High School Regional Championships for the Baker girls, and what a day it was!

Olivia competed at her first ever Regional Championships after only 3 months in athletics. To make it even more special, she lined up in the relay alongside her sister Lilly, with the team finishing an impressive 4th. A fantastic achievement and just the beginning of what’s to come.

Lilly continued her outstanding school season with an incredible all-round performance:

🥇 1st Shot Put
🥇 1st 100m
🥇 1st 200m
🥇 1st Triple Jump
🥈 2nd Long Jump
🥈 2nd Discus
4th Relay

Lilly has now qualified for State in all six of those events. She also secured qualification for the Hurdles by submitting times.

Im incredibly proud of both of you.

Busy day for the Rip N Tear crew today! 🔥

We kicked things off with Lilly and Jake starting their first session with the Hunter Academy. Big things ahead for these two! 👏

Then it was straight to the Super Meet at Glendale, where our athletes put in some awesome performances.

Huge shout out to Brontë, Chloe and Penny for smashing out some massive PBs!

To everyone else… you all did an awesome job. Great attitudes, great effort, and plenty of improvements heading into the bigger school carnivals.
Now it’s time to recover… eat everything in sight, have a nap, and get ready to do it all again!

Proud of every single one of you!

ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT SAV 🏃‍♀️

After repeatedly reminding me that she deserved an Athlete Spotlight... here it is!

Sav has been working hard to improve her fitness and speed for the 1500m. Some sessions are tough, and I'm pretty sure she's questioned my coaching a few times along the way, but she gets it done.

Her determination and willingness to keep showing up are paying off, and we're really proud of the progress she's making.

Keep working hard Sav!

This is a fantastic achievement and a reflection of the hard work, dedication, and commitment they consistently bring to training and competition.

We are incredibly proud to see both athletes recognised for their efforts and look forward to seeing what they can achieve through this exciting opportunity.

A huge congratulations to Jace, who stepped into the circle and delivered a massive Personal Best in the Hammer Throw today!

Not only did he throw further than ever before, but the mark is also a National Qualifier (pending official confirmation)

The hard work, consistency and commitment are paying off. We can’t wait to see what’s next!
