Welcome Athletes & Families to Watsonia United LAC for Season 2010/11
The WULAC Committee has had a lovely rest over the winter but it's time to get ready for the coming summer season.
At the DVLAC AGM, Watsonia United won the Edney-Macrae Trophy . The DVLAC committee have made more improvements to the program, including adding Javelin for the U11's & 12's. U7 on-trackers will have more track time with a single event each week before Christmas and 2 events after Christmas. As well as the opportunity to compete at centre championships i.e. go for medals. &&&
Electronic recording of results will be extended to most track events this season and DVLAC are moving to a complete electronic results system.
