Secondary Cross Country – Date Changed

Important Information

The School Sport WA Secondary Cross Country date has been changed

School Sport WA Management group has today changed the date of the Secondary Cross Country back to the originally publicised date of Thursday 29th April.

The reason for this is to accommodate a large number of schools who report that the second date of June 3rd is still within their exam period due to the 11 week term, and that they would not be able to bring Year 10,11 or 12 students.

SSWA realises that some students who nominate for the state team may not be able to compete due to attending the National Track & Field Championships in April. The number of these students impacted would be nowhere near to the number impacted by the June date. Therefore the decision to return to the earlier date was taken.

SSWA will allow students who are not able to compete in this April event due to extenuating circumstances, to submit an official time from another event. Please contact the SSWA office to discuss this, close to the date if it happens that you cannot compete on April 29th.

Anyone who has already nominated for this event has been contacted via email with this update.

Any player not able to attend training should let Team Manager, Alex McLennan, know as soon as possible prior to that training session.

At this training session a uniform fitting will be held. The expectation is that all boys will order a jumper, playing shorts and socks costing approximately $100. We will also have the complete range of the WA uniform for anyone who is interested in ordering any part of the uniform.

Further information will be emailed out in the coming week outlining our plan of attack in regards to the opportunities that we’d like to offer this group of young men.
