Being involved excites your kids and makes them proud of their club and their family. At Mount Druitt Little Athletics Centre we believe family is the base of our club and we hope to provide all participants with a fun, friendly and inspiring environment to attend each week.
Our club’s policy is that at least one parent must be in attendance at the field at all times while their children are competing at May Cowpe Reserve, Rooty Hill. ** Being in your car does not qualify.
Two Parent’s Only are required to assist our Age Managers with Spiking and Measuring, if these positions are filled other areas of assistance that will be required are: Time Keeping, Place Judging, Starter, Canteen or other duties as requested to ensure our competition nights flow smoothly to make it a shorter night for everyone. Any Parent wishing to take up a permanent position commitment over a few years will be issued as soon as possible a Mount Druitt Little Athletics Polo Shirt and unlimited free tea or coffee only during Friday competition nights. We will be enforcing this rule by checking on attendance of parents of competing athletes. Any child found not to have a parent in attendance “ON” the field will be removed from the night's competition.
These rules are in place to ensure that we can obtain rapid action if anything was to occur with the athlete on competition nights as well as ensuring parents meet their responsibility as helpers on the night.
Parents please also remember that before entering your child into a Special Event (ie: Zone, Region, Centre Championships etc) that you will be required to assist at these events on a roster system. If you are unable or unwilling for any reason to assist at Mount Druitt’s rostered events you will be jeopardising your child’s entry into these events and for awards as outlined in the Awards section of the Handbook.
