Congratulations to our Champions!

Congratulations to our international champions, Rayann Lacheny (Sport Pro) and Wing Yee Leung (Hong Kong), winners of the CHOICE HOMES Darren Smith Classic for 2025.

A big thank you to Glynn and the team at CHOICE HOMES, without whom, this event would not happen.

Full results and podium photos to follow.

PARKING UPDATE:

Please allow some extra time to sort parking.

There will be very limited parking on the oval on the very western edge.

Do not drive or park across the centre of the oval.

If you are attempting to park on the oval please use the slip lane managed by traffic control to avoid stopping on the finishing straight.

Parking will be available on the edge of the road after the finish line. The ground is soft in parts.

Thanks for your assistance with this as we try and protect the space for future races.

Thankyou everyone for coming to DSC criterium this morning! It was sunny, with a side of wind 🌬️

A huge Thankyou goes to our race director - Damien McFarleine for organising this weekends events, and to each volunteer who has taken time out of their weekend to assist!

Please return numbers and transponders tomorrow post our road race at Mt Alford.

SUNDAY PARKING

The school's ovals are wet and may not dry before the race. We obviously don't want to damage the student's oval so we may have to revert to our back up plan - parking along the road curb after the finish line.

Please don't park before the finish line, in front of the school, for safety reasons and so the commissaires have a clear line of sight.

We will confirm this arrangement Saturday night.

Thanks for understanding 😊
