It's mid week and a perfect time to start ensuring you are good to go for this weekends Regional championships.

Firstly ensure you have all your athlete gear sorted. (Coburg top with Cole's patch sewn on, plain black shorts without pockets and large logos, athlete name patch and correct shoes). All this is mandatory and checked by LAVIC prior to events and athletes will be unable to compete if they don't follow guidelines.

Parking will be VERY hectic and we recommend you take that into account for arrival time. An additional carpark will be open at the back of the hammer cage accessed via the st at the top of the hill.

Upon arrival you are required to check in with the Coburg team marquee so we can tick your athlete off and discuss any allocation of volunteer duties.

Please ensure you are on site 30 minutes before your event starts. Track Call room opens 20 minutes prior to the event time and closes 10 minutes prior to the event time. For field events, athletes are required to marshal at the Field Marshal Point 20 mins prior to event. If your athlete isn't in the call room / marshall point on time they will not be allowed to compete.

If you are on a volunteer role and require assistance then Kristin and I will be happy to assist your child get to their event on time. Please let us know if needed. Please ensure you present yourself to our marquee prior to the role time. Parents will be contacted via phone if they don't present for their volunteer role.

We recommend families bring camping chairs etc to sit on. We will have numerous marquees set up at the canteen end for athletes and families to sit under.

You are not required to stay on site if there is a very large gap between events and if you have fulfilled your volunteer slot.

Some sunscreen will be available. Hats are highly recommended and tshirt etc for greater sun coverage when not competing.

Competition goes ahead in all weather(this includes rain). We only pause if conditions are deemed unsafe.

Canteen/bbq/coffee van will be available. We pause competition for a lunch break but this is often the busiest period.
