State Combined Event, 29th and 30th January 2021

Congratulations to our Bronze medal winner - Mark Mavrakis U/14.

A great weekend for Mark who showed continued development and stamina over the past 12 months to achieve 1 place better than he did last year.

A fantastic result.

Congratulations to our ribbon winners (top 8) for their age group.

Sienna Gec U/12: 6th place
Grace Murray U/13: 8th place
Ethan Stegehuis U/15: 8th place

Over the weekend (Jan 29th & Jan 30th) 24 of our Keilor Athletes competed in the State Combined event.

The Combined Events consisted of five events for U/9 – U/12 athletes, six events for U/13’s and seven events for U/14, U/15 & U/16 athletes. The Combined competition requires a strength in a variety of disciplines and endurance to compete over a long time. Each athlete competes in all events and points are awarded for each event. After their final 800m event the points are then tallied for an overall winner.

For many of our athletes this was their first experience at the combined event and they showed a strong determination to strive towards personal best performances in each of their events.

Keilor had four U/9 athletes, Caitlin Sobell, Charlotte Darmanin, Mason Sutherland and Marcus Afedzie experience their 1st State event - what a fantastic job they did with many PB’s. We hope this is the start of a long association with Little Athletics state events. While with our older athletes all 6 of our U/14 & U/15 Boys finished in the top 20 in the state. What a great example for our younger athletes.

Congratulations to all our Keilor athletes.
