Dion Latta
The New Zealand Secondary Schools Athletics Association Executive, on behalf of all our members and participants, extends our deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Dion Latta who tragically died on New Year’s day as a result of an accident in the outdoors. Dion was a student at John McGlashan College and represented his school at our recent National Road Race Championships in Wellington finishing 9th in the Junior Boys’ event. We know Dion will be very much missed by his team mates and staff involved with athletics at John McGlashan College and we would like you to know that our thoughts are with you all at this sad time.

Scratchings now closed
Scratchings from individual events in the Track and Field Championships have now closed and any scratching from Thursday December 8 on is a scratching from all events. There are a small number of schools who are yet to pay for their entries. Manager’s packs for those schools will be withheld until proof of payment is presented or payment is made at the Technical Information Centre (TIC). A very big thank you to the great majority who have made their payments on time. |

Payment for Entries
If athlete names have not appeared in the entries so far it means that entries still have to be paid for. Login, go to Payment and Proceed to Checkout and complete payment. Manager packs will not be available until payment is made. Cheques or cash will be accepted at the Championships for unpaid entries. |
Entries
There have been some delays in the transfer of paid entries from the online entries system to the website that displays the entries publically. These entries are now up to date (please refresh the pages if it appears to still be an old list). If your school entries are listed under Browse Entries in the online entries system, then they have been received. Please note that athlete names will not appear here until the entry fees have been paid. All entry fees must be paid prior to the beginning of the championships. |
