Try again – Manly, Cromer, Peninsula club presentations this Saturday

The long-overdue 2019/20 club presentations for the Manly, Cromer and Peninsula clubs have been rescheduled to be held at the track at Narrabeen this Saturday (February 20).

Presentations will be from 7am to 7.30am, prior to the start of competition.

Athletes who competed for each of the three clubs should meet at their respective banners, between the entry gates and canteen block, by the allocated time.

Each club’s awards will include those for age champions in each age group, and the male and female club champions.
