Parent Responsibilities

All parents are expected to assist at our centre meetings. All parents are required to rester themselves for tasks throughout the season. Roles include chaperones, assistant chaperones, setup, pack-up, event officials and timekeepers and BBQ. Although there is lots to do, no job is particularly hard, and the children will be grateful for your assistance. For more information see the Get Involved section of this site.

How It Works

The evening will start at 6:00 pm sharp with the athletes warm ups. Parents should use this time to assit with setting up and to prepare for their rostered tasks. This season notices will be posted on the club website (www.hclac.org.au/news) and a monthly newsletter (limited numbers of the newsletter will be available at the club). Any presentations will be made after the warm ups.

Each group has a series of events scheduled (click here to view the program). The group proceeds to their events in the order shown on the recording sheet and competes in the events. The group chaperone records the results of the athletes on the recording sheet. At the end of the evening these results are collected and collated by the centre recorders.

Athletes are expected to compete in all events scheduled for their group each week. We have endeavoured to provide a program that is suitable to all athletes needs and abilities.
