  • Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth Champion, Greg
    Olympic, World, European and Commonwealth champion, Greg Rutherford is Great Britain’s most decorated long jumper and one of the country’s most successful Olympic athletes. After a successful junior career, Greg won gold at the London 2012 Olympics - changing his life forever and playing his part in the most successful night of British olympic sport in history. This iconic victory began a winning streak of gold medals; at the 2014 European Championships, 2014 Commonwealth Games and the 2015 World Championships. In 2015, Greg topped the long jump ranking in the IAAF Diamond League, the athletics equivalent of the Champions League. At the end of his 2015 season, he held every available elite outdoor title. In 2016 at the Rio Olympic’s, Greg backed up his 2012 Olympic success with a further Olympic medal - he also found himself on the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom floor shortly after! Greg is the British record holder, both indoors and outdoors, with bests of 8.26m (indoors) and 8.51m (outdoors). These sporting successes place Greg among the ranks of the British supreme athletics performers - simultaneously holding 4 major outdoors titles - he sits alongside legends such as, Linford Christie, Sally Gunnell, Johnathan Edwards & Daley Thompson. Greg’s route to the top was anything but smooth. From humble and often difficult beginnings, Greg rebelled during his teenage years and ended up dropping out of school, telling his teachers he was going to be a professional sportsman, no matter what - despite having no job, no money and little more than a firm belief in his own raw talent.

  • On Behalf of the Committee and All Members of Melville Roar I Extend a Warm and Inviting Welcome to the 2015-16 Season
    On behalf of the committee and all members of Melville Roar I extend a warm and inviting welcome to the 2015-16 season. This book serves as a celebration of last season’s individual and team achievements, as well as being a reference point for important centre information surrounding records, rules and requirements. It is also a mechanism for highlighting the many successes we have had as a centre, particularly with our athletes selected into State Representative Teams. Without question, the success of our Centre and associated Clubs is built upon a foundation of high parental involvement and enthusiasm. This is your club and we are here to bring out the best in each other. In any club, it is not one person’s job, rather a collective responsibility to work together to enable our children to compete, develop friendships and support each other. As parents, we are the role models and Little Athletics is a unique opportunity for our children to watch and learn from our interactions as well as develop resiliency in a supportive environment. My expectations for the coming season is that your child enjoys themselves, is challenged in their performances and is provided opportunity to improve through club and centre coaching opportunities. As in life, we should be modelling to our children that there is no need to compare yourself to others and when you think of other sports, Athletics provides a unique opportunity for children to develop skills in a number of key fundamental areas such as short and long running, jumping, throwing and walking.
