All are welcome - check the Brisbane Calendar or Gold Coast Calendar for details. If you're not in the South East check out your Local Athletics Club - you'll be welcome to join in there too. And don't forget organized Training Groups for sprinters and distance runners - work at your own pace, all welcome.

QA Relays-help wanted!

 

The QMA tent will be up at QA relays, as somewhere to hang out between events but also to promote QMA. Bruce Bodsworth will be leading this but he needs some help. It’s really easy, we just need people to be there for an hour, talk to people and tell them about QMA and masters athletics.

​

We're using SignUp (the leading online signup and reminder tool) to organise this.

 

Here's how it works in 3 easy steps:

1. Click this link to go to our invitation page on SignUp:

Volunteering at the Track

 

We see them every week - the dedicated handful of volunteers who ensure we have well run track and field masters competitions, in all weathers. We salute you!

​

But they can't do it alone (or forever) - every competitor (or friend) is urged to put up their hand to help with an event or competition when they can. Volunteers are particularly needed on days when Championship events are on the program.

Safety at the Track

A reminder to all track and field competitors that the safety of yourself and others is paramount.

​

What does this mean in practice? Be aware of your surroundings at all times. Before crossing the track always check if there is an event in progress. Never cross the infield when a competition is on, walk around the outside of the track to get where you're going. Ensure small children are supervised at all times.

​

Stay Safe - protect yourself and others.

It's You Against The World!
