President's Message

 
Welcome to www.ryde-athletics.org.au

You are able to visit this website as a direct result of the efforts of number of committee members for whom I express sincere thanks on behalf of everyone at Ryde Athletics.

This site is now well used as the the cornerstone of publicity for Ryde Athletics. We use it to to share many useful pieces of information for athletes, parents and visitors. You can find all manner of items for download including registration forms, carnival programs and competition rules and our popular Footprint magazine.

This is the 40th year of our sport in NSW and we now have over 40,000 children participating in what we know to be one of the most fun things they and their families can be involved in.
The underlying principle of Junior Athletics competition is what sets us apart from other sports. At our foundation is the encouragement and recognition of personal bests. Our programs, events, competition and awards are strongly oriented to assist everyone in achieving PB’s. It is essential that we as a club and as parents foster this approach to athletics and hopefully, all other areas of life as well.

The direct measures of our success as a facility for young athletes always lie in the area of their results and achievements. No season passes without some club records being broken. This is direct testimony to the quality of our coaching staff and their programs and the dedication of our young stars that set these new marks. Look into the coaching sections of this site to see how your athletics achievements can be lifted by specialist coaching in your pet events.

At Ryde we also have a very active program for local schools which encourages them to come and use our facilities for their carnivals. Please look into the contact details if your school is considering an Athletics Carnival in the months from April through to August.

I invite you to explore this site and the information herein. The purposes of your visit to this page may be wide and varied. You may be looking to get into athletics for the first time and exploring or you may be looking for something specific. We have set out to build this site to cater for as many enquiries as possible. I would also ask that you add our site to your favourites menu and come back often. We are continually adding and changing the content and information on our website, the best website of any Athletics club in Ryde !!

President (Juniors)
