Zone Championship - Illawong, NSW - 28/29 January 2006
Our club proved quite successful at the Zone Championship last week-end! 44 children represented Helensburgh at this athletics gathering. Among them 40 managed a qualification for one or more finals in their favourite field and/or tracks events.
Eventually the following 8 boys and 10 girls finished in the first 4 of their respective finals and thus qualified for the upcoming Regional Championship to be held at Bankstown on 18/19 February.
Well done everyone!
