BOX HILL WIN WOMEN’S UNDER 16 SHIELD PREMIERSHIP

Congratulations to the Box Hill under 16 girls team that comprehensively won the Athletics Victoria Shield Premiership on Saturday.

Thanks also to Chris Muirden for his help with team management and for his report on the final below:

Under 16s win Shield Final

Congratulations to all our girls who took part in yesterday’s final at Olympic Park and thank you also to all those girls who took part in events during the season to help get them there.

We ended up comprehensive winners with our nearest rival Knox 178.5 points behind.

While there were many highlights on a hot day, a few who made a massive contribution were:

Zoe Schwerkolt who did four events including the walk, steeple and 1500m and clocked up around 120 points on her own.

Nana Owusu-Afriyie and Jackie Fredriksen, both U16s again next year, who had great runs in the 100m and then finished 1-2 in the Long Jump before being part of our gun 4x100m relay team that clocked 50.05 seconds.

Emily Goessler who did the difficult 1500 and 400m double and again impressed.

Emily Taylor-Brown who completed a rare Javelin, PV, Discus treble with distinction.

Kate Boulter who ran up a few age groups and took on former state junior champion Mikaela Davis in the 400m and pushed her all the way before scoring big points in the discus.

Thank you also to all those girls who came in for just one event and racked up a few points to make sure we were never in danger.

Hopefully next year we can expand on our dominance and claim titles in both the U16s and U18 age groups.

BOX HILL WOMEN 2ND IN DIVISION 1 PREMIERSHIP

After leading halfway through the program our Division 1 women’s team finished 2nd in the shield final. Despite some great efforts on the day, the injury, illness and unavailability of several key athletes took its toll at the end of the day. There were a number of outstanding efforts, but special mention to Viv Lee who took part in five events and to June Petrie who came as a spectator but ended racing in the 1500m after we had a late withdrawal. It was disappointing not to defend our women’s premiership, but we went close and can hopefully win back the title next year.

BOX HILL WOMEN 2ND IN DIVISION 1 PREMIERSHIP

After leading halfway through the program our Division 1 women’s team finished 2nd in the shield final. Despite some great efforts on the day, the injury, illness and unavailability of several key athletes took its toll at the end of the day. There were a number of outstanding efforts, but special mention to Viv Lee who took part in five events and to June Petrie who came as a spectator but ended racing in the 1500m after we had a late withdrawal. It was disappointing not to defend our women’s premiership, but we went close and can hopefully win back the title next year.

AUSTRALIA DAY HONOURS

They say that you have to learn to walk before you can run, and Nathan Brill certainly showed that he is very well versed in both!  An Australian representative in race walking Nathan was First U17 in the Australia Day 10km Fun Run on the Mornington Peninsula in the impressive time of 34.55!  Nathan was 4th across the line.  Other line honours went to Julie Norney winning the 10km Open Female category in 37.23; June Petrie winning the 45+ Female category in 39.34 and Andrew Hester winning the 5.3km Open Male Category in 18.31.  Australia Day Medals also went to 5.3km competitors Laughlin Norney 3rd U17 20.05 and Charmaine McNally 5th Open Female 23.59.

 

JAPAN BECKONS

Returning to Japan for the Kagawa Marugame ½ Marathon on 3 February, Nikki Chapple put in a great race to place 8th in 70.34.  The race was won by  Ethiopian Tiki Gelana in 68.53.  Gelana made it back to back wins in the event, won the London Olympic Marathon and was recently crowned the AIMS / ASICS World Athlete of the Year 2012.  Nikki has a good track record at Marugame event winning the 2010 race in 68.37, a touch faster than Gelana’s 2013 time.

VALE COLIN POCKLINGTON

It is with sad regret that we saw the passing of Colin Pocklington on Tuesday morning. Colin had a very tough battle with cancer and several operations during his treatment. Only last season, Colin was a valued member of our 40+ team and participated in the Shield final, were we where runners up.

Colin and his family have been heavily involved in the club for many years and he will be sadly missed. Colin was always a very kind and generous man and lived his life with dignity and honour, he earned the respect and admiration of all those who knew him.

On behalf of all of his friends and colleagues at Box Hill we would like to pass on our deepest sympathies to Colin’s family in this time of loss. To Meredith, Joel, Dion, Ben, and Alex, our thoughts are with you.
