Two days of fun in the Doncaster sun for our 40+ members produced many PBs and lots of medals.

This year the championship included a team theme with Essendon combining with Aberfeldie Masters, Keilor St Bernard’s and Western Athletics. Participation was just as important as performance.

Everyone chipped in and helped run the show but big thanks to Doreen who was out on the jump pits for both days.
