Just a little reminder that there is 🚫NO CLUB NIGHT🚫 tomorrow night!

We will see you all next week on the 25th September for our final preseason night!

✅ PRE-SEASON WEEK 3!
U6 right through to Opens! We are now all back together! 🎉 (*Tiny Tots you start Oct 2nd!)

Below is the program we will be running tomorrow night👇

Remember:

⏰ Group warm up is at 5:45pm.

🏃🏼‍♂️Triallists and those still needing to finalise their registrations, please be sure to arrive early.

🙏🏼 We are a little short on volunteers and committee members tomorrow night, so if you are able to come down early and help set up, it would be greatly appreciated! (Anytime from 4.30pm onwards)

👕 If you don’t have a uniform ready please just wear comfortable clothing and write your athlete’s registration number on their hand / tape on their shirt.

🚗 Please Note that an adult (parent or carer) must remain at the grounds at all times. Dropping your child off and leaving is not permitted.

🙌🏻 If you can volunteer to help out, please do so! Preseason is a great time to learn and we are always needing helpers! Often the biggest help can be just keeping the kids together and on task.

❤️ Please be patient. There will be a lot of children, many who are trying athletics for the first time, so things will likely run a little slower than usual.

🤗 HAVE FUN!

We look forward to seeing you there! ✈️

✅ PRE-SEASON WEEK 2!
U10+ AGE GROUPS - tomorrow night is your turn! 🙌🏻

Here’s the program we will be running, and a reminder of some housekeeping and general info you might find useful👇

⏰ Be ready for group warm up at 5:45pm.

🪣 Athletes please meet down near the finish line and find your age group red trolleys. Each trolley will be labelled (eg U12G, U12B). Athletes can pop their drink bottles and belongings in this trolley, which will follow them to events.

🚜 There is still fresh construction around so please follow instructions and keep off any out of bounds areas.

🫴 Bring your water bottle and jumper (both labeled please). And don’t forget the mozzie repellent!

🏠 The clubhouse will be open from 5pm for triallists to check-in and those still needing to finalise their registrations. Uniforms will also be available for purchase.

🏃‍♂️If you are coming for a TRIAL please allow extra time to visit the clubhouse first to sign-in.

👕 If you don’t have a uniform ready yet, that’s OK! Please just wear comfortable clothing and write your athlete’s registration number on their hand or on a piece of tape or paper pinned to their shirt. (We will also have markers / tape / paper up at the clubhouse if you need).

🙏🏼 Please be patient. We have many children who are trying athletics for the first time, so things will likely run a little slower than usual. U11s will also be learning brand NEW events like Javelin and Triple Jump!

🚗 An adult (parent or carer) must remain at the grounds at all times. Dropping your child off and leaving is not permitted.

🚫 Just a friendly reminder too please that there are NO animals / pets allowed at the grounds.

🤗 Lastly, HAVE FUN! The focus is on 'being your best' not beating others.

We look forward to seeing you ✈️

❌TRACK & FIELD CLOSED FOR MAINTENANCE❌
You may have noticed that we have been doing some improvements around the grounds! To get these completed ASAP we need to close the grounds for training until further notice. This should only be for a couple of weeks. Please contact your coaches directly if you usually use our grounds to train on. Thank you for cooperation and understanding 🙏🏼

PRE-SEASON CHECKLIST ✅

We are super excited to be having our first pre-season club night tomorrow night for our U6-U9 age groups! 🎉

⚠️Remember it’s ONLY U6-U9’s this week; older age groups, you’re up next week! (And Tiny Tots start 2nd October!)

Here’s the program we will be running, along with some housekeeping and general info you might find useful👇

⏰ Be ready for group warm up at 5:45pm.

🪣 Athletes please meet down near the finish line and find your age group red trolleys. Each trolley will be labelled (eg U8G, U8B). Athletes can pop their drink bottles and belongings in this trolley, which will follow them to events.

🫴 Bring your water bottle and jumper (both labeled please).

🏠 The clubhouse will be open from 5pm for trialists and those still needing help to finalise their registrations. We are expecting to be very busy so please allow time for a line up and arrive early if you can.

🏃‍♂️If you are coming for a TRIAL please also allow extra time to sign-in at the clubhouse first and make sure you have paid the invoice.

👕 If you don’t have a uniform ready yet, or have not received your registration bibs in the mail yet - that’s OK! Please just wear comfortable clothing and write your athlete’s registration number on their hand or on a piece of tape or paper pinned to their shirt. (We will also have markers / tape / paper up at the clubhouse if you need).

✔️Uniforms will be available to purchase on the night.

🚗 Please Note that an adult (parent or carer) MUST remain at the grounds at all times. Dropping your child off and leaving is not permitted. During preseason parents are welcome to accompany their children around to events and we welcome parent helpers!

🙏🏼 Please be patient. We have many children who are trying athletics for the first time, so things will likely run a little slower than usual. Our pre-season nights are all about learning for both parent helpers / age marshals and the kids!

🦟 The mozzies are starting to get friendly at the moment so we recommend repellant.

🤗 Lastly, HAVE FUN! The focus is on 'being your best' not beating others.

We look forward to seeing you and really hope you enjoy being a part of the Jimboomba Jets family! ✈️
