AVSL was back into the swing of things for the year starting with a twilight meet, it was a tough night for all events battling the weather, but two veterans, Julie Pendred and Pauline Graham rose to the challenge taking out 2 new BRAC records.

Julie Pendred claimed the 300m Hurdles 50+ Women with a time of 78.81 seconds.
Pauline Graham took out the 50+ Women’s Hammer throw with 25.81m to break her own previous record.

A round of applause for Bridie Shanahan who was the highest point scorer in the Ballarat region with 1,232 points. Bridie’s highest scoring event was the Discus, her furthest throw was 32.90m which amassed her a total of 445 points.

Great work from the clubs over the weekend, starting with the Premier division, Wendouree placed 7th. In Division 2, Ballarat Harriers placed 7th and Eureka placed 8th, finally Division 4 where YCW scored well to place into 2nd.

A reminder to enter for round 9 of AVSL which is on the 20/01/2024.
