  • June 2019- It Was a Cold Month but Girraween's Athletes Warmed It Up
    June 2019- It was a cold month but Girraween’s athletes warmed it up with great performances! June 2019, as we are all aware saw the start of winter with a vengeance and there was many a very cold morning and miserable afternoon for Girraween athletes to contend with. Nevertheless, there were a number of fine performances from Girraween’s athlete’s right across the board. One of the major highlights was the performance of Lauren Tisdale in winning a bronze medal representing Australia in the Women’s U18 Pole Vault in the Oceania Athletics Championships held in Townsville, North Queensland towards the end of June. Given that the summer season of athletics proper had concluded at the beginning of April, this was a mighty effort on Lauren’s part to stay focused and continue her training for almost a further three months. This paid off, with a well-deserved bronze medal coming Lauren’s way, with a leap not far off her personal best. Given that the conditions were incredibly windy on the day of her competition, it was very fine effort and all at Girraween Athletics Club send our congratulations to Lauren on her very fine achievement. This year, Girraween only had one representative at the ANSW Cross-Country Championships held near Nowra in June, and that individual was Steve Mifsud. It was a very gutsy effort by Steve to travel to Nowra to compete, given the various health issues he has, as initially it appeared that he would not be able to participate. Nevertheless, he found a way to do so, and while he may have ignored doctor’s orders we have to congratulate him on a very fine run all things considered.

  • MCAA Centenary Booklet 1880 to 1980.Pdf
    0 INTRODUCTION I have attempted to write this article about the Association during its first 100 years in a manner which I hope will be found interesting. I have not used bibliographic indications, but have included a bibliography as an aid for anyone who might wish to write a more detailed history of the Association. Principal events in the Association's history, some of them serious, some of them less serious are mentioned. The main primary source material used has been the Minutes of the Association's meetings. Unfortunately the Minutes of the first 20 years and for the period from 1939 until 1954 are missing and therefore I was unable to comment in detail about these periods. From reading this article you will see that it was the policy of the Association to improve the management of athletic meetings and suppress the abuses which were very prevalent in its early years and to keep the sport within the amateur ranks. From this base the Association is now firmly established, I have no doubt there will be omissions and the occasional mistake of fact and for these I apologise. ROY MITCHELL HON. SECRETARY Date: March 1980 1 FOREWORD This History written to record the first 100 years of the Midland Counties Amateur Athletic Association has not been uneventful, in a sport which covers over 20 disciplines and caters for all. The fat, the thin, the short, the tall, any class, creed, politics or colour, a truly all embracing pastime for all. This admirable history compiled over many hours of work by Roy Mitchell shows not only the evolution of the sport in the Midlands, but the very beginnings of the Modern Olympic ideals from the observing of the Much Wenlock Olympics which had been running for over 150 years before the advent of modern athletics which we know today.
