Duty may include \u2018officiating\u2019 an event, helping out in the canteen or doing club administration. The centre and its clubs appreciate any help you can provide. You may even consider joining your Club\u2019s committee or the Centre\u2019s Executive Committee.

Official \u2018Bring and Friend\u2019 days are conducted at Knox in the early part of each season. Alternatively just turn up on a competition day and make yourself known to the Program Manager (in the announcing booth at the top of the Grandstand). You will be introduced to a club, and children can participate in events with their age group.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\" align=\"center\">\n<hr align=\"center\" size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-para-margin-top: .01gd; mso-para-margin-right: 0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom: .01gd; mso-para-margin-left: 0cm; mso-outline-level: 2; margin: .1pt 0cm .1pt 0cm;\"><a name=\"uniform\"><\/a><b style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: Times;\">Do athletes wear a uniform?<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-para-margin-top: .01gd; mso-para-margin-right: 0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom: .01gd; mso-para-margin-left: 0cm; margin: .1pt 0cm .1pt 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: Times; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Yes!

The main emphasis is on participation and skills development. Children learn and practice the key skills of athletics through games and activities. It\u2019s an ideal first sport for children. The running, jumping and throwing activities help develop balance flexibility and strength.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-para-margin-top: .01gd; mso-para-margin-right: 0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom: .01gd; mso-para-margin-left: 0cm; margin: .1pt 0cm .1pt 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; font-family: Times; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman';\">Not only is Little Athletics a whole lot of fun, it\u2019s also a great way to keep fit. Let\u2019s face it, a healthy body means an alert mind and greater resistance to many physical ailments. Also, a child who learns how to keep fit in youth is more likely to stay fit for life.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Roger Corrales 0422816399 boronia@klac23.org.au Treasurer Roman Manrique SecretaryTeam Manager\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 Elizabeth Allison Luke Allison Allocated Schools Each club is allocated schools within their area.
