Club training

2024/25 Season 


We are super lucky to have our new coach Christian Romanelli on board, donating his time and expertise to Grovedale. Christian has so much passion and experience specifically in track and hurdles. 

Training is not compulsory but highly recommended. It's a great opportunity for kids to build their knowledge and experience.

Time and location: Deakin track Waurn Ponds, Mondays 5-6pm, starting Monday 7th Oct.

We have sought sponsorship to cover most of the cost to hire the track and pay our additional coaches (senior athletes from Deakin athletics) however we do ask that families invest the following:

The first 2 weeks of training are free (7th&14th), we are then asking a $25 fee per athlete to cover the rest of the whole season. If you attend all trainings this works out to be less than $2 per session!

RSVP: It is essential that we know numbers for training prior to the Monday session. Please RSVP the Sunday before via the weekly email or the link below if your child plans to attend. ​
