Terrible conditions with continuous downpours most of the day but a great team effort from our athletes today on the first day of the State Relays at QE2.

Over the years we have seen the team aspect of Relays really assist in lifting some athletes to a level they haven’t been before and we certainly saw some glimpses of that today along with solid efforts across the board from athletes of all levels as the other clubs and Qld Athletics officials ensured fair and tough competition.

A quieter day of competition on the Final day of State Relays at QE2. Thanks to all our athletes, parents, coaches and all the Queensland Athletics officials for a tough but memorable weekend of competition.

And in particular, thanks to the student athletes who were able to turn out for their clubs despite it being the most stressful time of the year academically with the last of the Jacaranda leaves fast disappearing.
