  • Little Athletics Australia Roll of Excellence 2010
    LITTLE ATHLETICS AUSTRALIA ROLL OF EXCELLENCE 2010 INFORMATION ON INDUCTEES George Harvey Volunteer A Queensland and Australian Little Athletics Life Member, George Harvey is considered by many as the patriarch of Little Athletics in Queensland. George first became involved in Little Athletics in 1975 as a founding member of Kenmore Little Athletics Centre and after gaining considerable experience at Centre level moved onto the Queensland State Board of Management, serving as President from 1979 to 1989 and becoming a principal driving force behind the Association during its formative years. From 1993 to 1996 George also served as the Chief Executive Officer of Queensland Little Athletics. For his contribution to the sport George was the first person to be awarded with Life Membership of Queensland Little Athletics and an award in his honour, the George Harvey Award, is presented each year to one girl and one boy who best demonstrate they embrace the ideals of Little Athletics. The criteria encompasses those attributes George himself believes are important not only in Little Athletics but also to any individual's growth and development. George has held virtually every position available within Little Athletics from Centre to national level, and was President of Australian Little Athletics from 1990 to 1994. Peter Wickes Volunteer Peter Wickes’ involvement with the Little Athletics NSW began in 1972. Over the past 38 years, Peter has provided valuable legal advice, administrative skills and coaching assistance through Club, Centre and Association levels. Peter was a Trustee of the Association prior to Little Athletics’ incorporation in 1988. During that time Peter provided wise counsel in all matters to the benefit of the Association, including the acquisition of the Association's first office premises in Parramatta.

  • Game Day Program
    ROUND 14 GAME DAY PROGRAM V 17 JANUARY 7PM TIP-OFF NCCC GAME PREVIEW A couple weeks later than originally planned, but the first UC Capitals’ first home game of 2020 is here. The game also marks the first of four the UC Capitals are due to play within just 10 days. It’s going to be grueling and opportunities to train will be limited, but it may also spark the momentum the UC Capitals need as they look to playoffs. The UC Capitals are coming off two uncharacteristic losses to the two bottom teams, the Bendigo Spirit and Townsville Fire. Despite some lackluster offense, Head Coach Paul Goriss was mostly disappointed with the team’s defense letting the Spirit and Fire away with 94 and 102 points respectively. Fortunately, the UC Capitals held their third-place spot on the ladder but there’s little keeping the Adelaide Lightning from taking over as they sit too close for comfort behind us. Earlier in the week there was hope that Kelsey Griffin may be healthy enough to make her return as she started training again. However, in another potential setback for the UC Capitals, Griffin hurt her hamstring on Tuesday. While the injury is minor, it means the team will have to make do until she’s given the all clear. So, the UC Caps will charge ahead into Friday night’s game with the MVP on the sideline as they desperately try to find their rhythm again before they enter their toughest run of the season. The Melbourne Boomers’ star import Lindsay Allen sat out of their last game against the Southside Flyers and it is currently unknown whether she’ll be back in for Friday.
