Dear Winston Hills Athletes, Parents, and Life Members,
As the days grow longer and the air fills with anticipation, we are thrilled to welcome you to the 50th season of the Winston Hills Athletics Centre! 🎉🏃♂️🏃♀️
A Golden Milestone: 50 Years Strong
Half a century of dedication, sweat, and camaraderie—we stand on the cusp of celebrating this remarkable milestone. From humble beginnings in 1975 to the vibrant community we are today, our journey has been nothing short of inspiring. As we lace up our running shoes and prepare for another exhilarating season, let us reflect on the memories, friendships, and victories that have shaped us.
Exciting Events Await:
- Social Gatherings: Join us for social events that promise laughter, camaraderie, and good food. Whether it’s celebratory dinners or brain-teasing trivia nights, these moments will strengthen our bonds beyond the track.
- Fun at Gooden Reserve: Gooden Reserve will come alive with fun events during our running days. From relay races to friendly competitions, there’s something for everyone. Bring your family, cheer for fellow athletes, and soak in the joy of community spirit.
- Athletics Structure Changes: This season brings exciting changes to our athletics structure. Thanks to the partnership between Little Athletics NSW and Athletics NSW, our sport will be more streamlined. The collaboration between junior and senior associations ensures a seamless transition for athletes moving from Little Athletics to Senior Athletics. Stay tuned for more details as registrations open in August.
Local Sponsors: Our Vital Partners
With the many events taking place this season, partnerships with our local sponsors will be critical for the success of our club. The committee is actively engaging with sponsors, and we’re delighted to welcome a few new sponsors on board. These partnerships directly benefit our athletes:
- Training Tee Shirts: Sponsor funds enable us to provide training tee shirts every second year, ensuring our athletes look and feel their best.
- New Equipment and Shade Tents: Our sponsors’ support extends to acquiring new equipment and shade tents, enhancing the overall experience for everyone.
Get Involved:
Whether you’re a sprinter, a thrower, a jumper, or a supporter from the sidelines, there’s a place for you here. Join us for training sessions, volunteer at events, or simply cheer on your fellow athletes. Together, we create the heartbeat of our community.
