Congratulations to Ruby O’Connor and Christian Callcut on winning the final events of the day, our ‘Invitationals’, which pits the day’s eight fastest female and male runners against each other. These were certainly great races!

Congratulations to Christian Callcut who broke both a Long Jump and a High Jump record. Christian broke Jake Fattore’s Long Jump record, setting a new mark of 5.17m, and Dylan Hulm’s High Jump record from 2007 by a massive 9cm. Christian will be hard pressed to beat in the record stakes. He finishes our 2019 athletics carnival holding 7 individual records, including all Long Jump and High Jump records on offer, and the 10 Years Boys 100m sprint. Many congratulations! Let’s hope they last for a long time to come. Zone Athletics Carnival: Thursday 15th of August
