Congratulations to our Relay teams!
Last Saturday, approximately 80 Mentone teams competed at the Region Relay Carnival in very hot and windy conditions at Springvale Little Athletics Centre. All of our superstar athletes performed brilliantly! If you haven't had a chance yet, head over to our Facebook page to see some great photos from the day.
There were some excellent performances, medals, records broken and as always, our athletes showed outstanding sportsmanship towards their teammates and competitors. We're very proud of them and all their efforts.
A big congratulations to our 29 medal winning teams, including 7 Gold, 11 Silver and 11 Bronze.

For those wondering when progressions will be announced for the State Relay Championships, to be held at Meadowglen International Athletics Stadium on December 14th, 2024. This have been delayed by a week as a result of Northern Country Region needing to postpone their event due to storms. Once we have a list we will share this with you all.
Finally, this day could not have happened without an enormous amount of help. A big thank you to all of the parents who performed their duties, Age Group Managers who have coordinated their teams in the lead up and on the day, Scott, Mat, Jodie and Nige for taking on Key Official roles, and to our amazing Mentone Team Managers, Sophie, Nat, and Lucy who always go above and beyond to support us
