Welcome to MLAC Open Day
Welcome to Week 10 of the 2021-2022 season at Mornington Little Athletics Centre (MLAC).
Please note there is no competition this Sat 22nd Jan. Instead, MLAC is proud to host our Combined Event Open Day on Sunday 23rd Jan starting at 9:30am. We have over 100 Little Aths and families from all over Victoria coming to visit and participate in our Open day event so please make everyone feel welcome. After the events are completed, we will be presenting medals for all Age Group 1st, 2nd and 3rd places for the Combined Event results.
We would appreciate all MLAC families to pitch in and help us to make this a successful event. We will need lots of assistance with Track set-up, pack-up and BBQ duties so please register for duties online.
This Sunday, our usual BBQ is back on and our lovely Coffee Van operator is back onsite with some breakfast goodies for our MLAC families so please make sure you visit and say hello.

Covid 19 Update
A friendly reminder to all MLAC Families to ensure you check in every time you attend an MLAC event - training or competition event. Please ensure you maintain a safe distance and practice good hand-hygiene during events. Given the increase in Covid infection rates in the community, please ensure that you do not attend if you have any covid-like symptoms. Our CovidSafe Plan is published on the website and we encourage all families to be familiar with the LAVIC and Centre Covid-safe protocols and our plan. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Our program for Week 10 is now available for download on our Website which contains all the scheduled events for each age group. Please note that MLAC can vary the Events and schedule pending the weather conditions for the day.
Parent & Volunteer Duties
Thank you to all the parents who have already used our new Duty Booking app on the website. All parents are expected to fulfil their weekly duty allocation. Our club cannot function each week without the assistance of our parents and volunteers.
Duties for this week are as follows:
Track Set Up: from 07:30 - 08:30 UNDER 9 BOYS & OPEN GIRLS
BBQ Duties: from 09:00 to 12:00pm UNDER 8 BOYS & UNDER 8 GIRLS
Track Pack Up: from 12:00 - 13:00 UNDER 10 BOYS & UNDER 6 BOYS
Please book your duties online to help MLAC run each session effectively. We are very grateful to our MLAC Committee who gets this work done each week but we certainly need all parents to assist.
Uniforms
MLAC offers a range of uniforms and merchandise for sale at each session including Club t-shirts, singlets, crop-tops, MLAC hoodies and LA Vic branded shorts. We also offer ceramic running spikes and shoe bags. If you need to purchase any uniform item, you can do so using our online shop and click & collect on Saturday morning.
We had lots of new uniforms sold in the past 5 weeks and our stock is running low. To beat the rush on Saturday morning, please order online and then you can click & collect on Saturday. We have ordered new stock which should hopefully arrive in early Jan 2022.
A friendly reminder that any uniform with a Jetstar patch or logo is not permitted by LAVic. Little Athletics has been sponsored by Coles for almost 5 years and you must ensure your MLAC top, singlet has the Coles logo attached. If you need to collect a Coles patch, please come and collect one from the office on Saturday morning.
New Families FAQs
We are delighted to welcome our Trial Athletes families to Mornington Little Aths. We have a lot of useful information on our website including a list of FAQs and what to expect on the day. All our parents are encouraged to assist and support our kids as they complete their events. If you have any questions about our Program or Centre, please get in contact with us or any Committee Member (wearing Orange Polo tops) on the track.
Results HQ
Each week event results are added to the Results HQ website where you can view your child’s results if you are a paid member. For our trial athletes, once you complete the registration process and pay the fees, your child’s results will also be available.
For those who haven't accessed their results before, you will need to do so through the Results HQ platform. To login use your primary email address that you used during registration, will become our username for Results HQ
Please note that results are not always live and it may take a little while for them to be put into the system. There is also a PDF Achievement Book with all of the athletes' season results available to print and download.
