Summer Shield competition
See AV site for the timetable.
Lets make this another good track season for Collingwood Harriers, we need you all to come along and compete in as many events as you can and on as many weeks as you can. The more people who qualify for the finals, the greater we spread the load and the better we will go.
See you this Saturday at Box Hill. I'll be taking lots of photos and printing a selection, which will available for a gold coin the following Saturday.
Calling all Open level Harriers.
The club needs you to help with events at Saturday shield comp. Come for one event or socialise the afternoon away and do multiple events. The Open teams are desperate for any compeditors in all events.
Shield Round 10: Box Hill
The new rolled around and the next shield comp was close behind. Saturday was program 2 and there was a low turn out across the board at Collingwood. The 40+ men could only manage 3rd and could now miss out on the finals if we do not win one of the last two rounds. Many other teams are close to final qualifications. Come on Harriers let start the new year with a solid turn up at the last two shield comps for the season.

Preliminary Results: click here
Griffo Report: Click here
Well I am not sure how we managed , but it cleared at Box Hill and we managed the entire program of events, minus discus and javelin.
Results are posted on AV website. Well done to our FU18 girls on their 1st win for the season. Also wins to F40+, MU14 and M40+ (but M40+ might end up being 2nd due to a discrepancy). FU14 were 2nd, which is a good result for them. MU16 were also 2nd, missing 1st place by just 3 points - just one of the guys doing the 1500m or a 2nd long jumper would've secured the win. Similar story with the FU16, who were 3rd, missing 2nd place by just 4 points - an extra event being done by one or two of the girls might've resulted in the win (and definitely 2nd). There's a couple of premierships there for the taking if you want your team to win one guys!
  
  
Shield round 5 was cancelled due to rain.

Shield Round 2
We were lucky Saturday, it rained before and after shield comp.
The threat of bad weather looked to have kept many away. Remember AV will send an SMS out if competition is cancelled. No SMS please come along as they will try run the days events.
The 40+ women had another another great day with several more mums helping fill the ranks, they even out numbered the 40+ men!
So we need all athletes to attand when ever possible. The 40+ men struggled with 6 atheletes to fill all events.

We had a reasonable showing of athletes and hope to see greater numbers every week from now on.
