Hard to single out highlights with many impressive results and PBs…

Jayla bettered her 200m PB + junior state records and took out the open women’s 100m (at 14yo) in a very very very close race⚡️💥

With no one else being in Ellie’s U18 400m race, we were happy it was combined with the open women so she at least had some people to run with, even though she wasn’t ‘racing’ them, she managed to finish 3rd overall in her first state champs appearance 🔥

The U18 boys all hit a PB in their short sprint events despite some niggles.

Alec went sub 54sec for the first time and should improve again next season with a full prep vs 10 weeks.

Our U14 short sprinters battled each other and all ran PB’s ⭐️

Milla picked up some medals and a PB in the short sprints

Piper, in her first year of track, continued her improvement season over the middle distance events, narrowly edging out training partner Amarli.

The Young brothers showed a bit of spark 🧨 dropping PB’s in both their races.

Pirri just got through the weekend after a less than ideal lead up.

For those interested in going, they’ll train for the upcoming Aus champs next month.

Otherwise there’s a few tired bodies that should be keen for an off-season but hungry for more next season

Well done team 🏃🏻‍♂️‍➡️🏃🏼‍♀️‍➡️

OFF THE TRACK 🌊

3 of our juniors recently competed at the Tasmanian Junior Surf Life Saving Championships and produced some fantastic results.

A great reward for the time and effort these girls consistently put into their training which includes fitting in a quick running sesh before heading to practice on the beach and in the water 🥶

Also well done to their respective surf club coaches who play an important role supporting their development.

I saw a video 12 months ago that changed something small in how I coach.

The idea was that instead of telling athletes “I’m proud of you,” tell them “You should be proud of yourself.”

It’s a subtle shift but the goal is to help athletes build intrinsic motivation, self belief and self-worth, rather than relying on external validation and approval from others.

Last night one of my athletes ran a PB and exceeded their goal for the season.

I messaged them saying I was stoked for them.

They replied:
“I’m so proud.”

That’s the moment I’m hoping for as a coach and there’s no better message I could receive.

Too many athletes think they need to perform to make their parents, coach, friends, followers… or even the dog proud.

But the real win is when they finish a race and think:

“I’m proud of myself.”

If you’re a parent, coach, friend (or dog) maybe try it next time.

And if you’re an athlete, be careful not to fall into the trap of chasing validation from others.

Tassie’s fastest 14yo has been given an incredible opportunity at this weekends Hobart Track Classic.

Jayla will race the women’s 100m with some of the fastest in the country including Tassie’s fastest ever, Chelsea Scolyer and Olympic 100m semi finalist, Bree Rizzo 🔥

Moments like this are about learning, gaining experience, stretching yourself and taking opportunities when they come your way.

Most of the athletes I coach are junior, developing athletes and coaching the developmental athlete requires restraint. This was something I’ve always taken into consideration but was recently highlighted in a course from I completed on how to more effectively develop junior athletes so that they can reach their potential.

It can be challenging at times with pressure from parents, athletes or peers to include certain types of training or drills in the pursuit of short-term results.

But, this course really highlighted the importance of ensuring that there is still room to grow so athletes can eventually reach their full potential later, when they are ready for high performance and are working toward the peak of their athletic ability (likely >20yo).

This is important for athletes and parents to understand…The best programs protect potential, not just chase short-term results.

A junior athlete dominating early doesn’t signal or predict elite performance or success later.

Most young athletes don’t need advanced tools, pro-level volume, or every “cool” drill on Instagram. In fact, giving them everything too early can take away the very thing they’ll need most later, room to grow.

The goal isn’t just to make them good now and get results

The goal isn’t to empty the toolbox to maximise them at 16.

It’s to protect the 25yo they might become.

2025 Australian All Schools U18 800m champion 🥇🤯

After opening the season with a 2:08 (2sec PB) I thought Ash might be in the mix for a medal at Aus All Schools. But you never know who will turn up and how much everyone else has improved. All you can do is control your own prep, trust the work you’ve done and put in your best effort on race day.

A foot injury 2 weeks out was a curveball that slightly limited the final prep.
But even that wasn’t enough to slow you down you Ash.

You should be incredibly proud of this achievement.

Gutsy, determined, dedicated

2025 Australian All Schools double bronze medallist🥉🥉

Jayla had an outstanding weekend.

Ranked 6th in the 200m and 4th in the 100m, she was looking forward to testing herself against some fast competition, aiming for a PB in both events.

She didn’t waste any time, opening her weekend with a 200m PB in the heats, going sub 25sec for the first time with a legal wind. A few hours later she backed it up going even faster in the final, slicing 0.43sec off her previous PB  which was enough to also claim the bronze medal🥉

Her 200m time of 24.65sec also broke the Tasmanian U15 & U16 200m records that had stood for 41 years 💥🤯

The 100m final was a thriller where it looked as though the top 4 girls all hit the lead at different stages. Jayla timed her dip precisely to claim 3rd and another bronze medal scraping in by 0.01sec.
No PB but a -1.8 headwind made fast times a tough task for everyone.

Jayla showed incredible composure under the pressure of racing the short sprints which was great to see.

A PB and double bronze at an Australian champs is no small achievement. You should be extremely proud of yourself Jayla 🌟

Aus All Schools 2025

For Nash, Oakley, and Piper, it was their first taste of a national level comp. They gained valuable experience of competing at a major championship, racing some of the best juniors in the country.

Piper took on both the 800m and 1500m coming away with PB’s in each despite going with the fast pace early. Having one of the slower seed times was a daunting prospect. But, she held her nerve and gained some knowledge about pacing and running your own race that she’ll take into her future races.

Oakley narrowly missed a PB in the 200m. For a guy that’s only been training for 4 months he’s done very well.

Nash stepped up from his favourite event, the 100m, to contest the 200m, executed and earned a new PB.

After a big weekend of growth and experience I’m looking forward to seeing what they do through the rest of the season ⚡️

School Sport Australia Nationals 🇦🇺💚💛

✅ Charlotte – 100m & 200m all conditions PBs 🚀

✅ Claire – 800m PB in the tetrathlon, 100m all conditions PB and agonisingly close to the 100m final 🔥

✅ Quinley – PB in the tetrathlon 100m with a strong run also on the 800m 💪

I see junior development and sport as less about finishing place and more about putting practise into action, competing, gaining experience and learning with every race.

The girls should be proud of how they competed and represented our squad and state. The future is bright ✨

All 3 12yr girls in the 100m and 200m finals
Piper and Oakley on the podium in their first all schools
