CGS Mini-Olympics - Box Hill 14th Aug

The annual CGS Mini-Olympics was held this weekend at the Box Hill Aths track. The event was open to all CGS athletes and four teams were selected on the day to compete for overall prizes as well as individual trophies.
With nearly 70 athletes competing, there was good depth in most of the key events, which bodes well for the upcoming finals. Some helpful tail winds favoured the sprinters, but others had to battle tough, cold, blustery weather - so well done to all who braved the conditions.
Team Captains Ming Tee, Lachlan McMillan, Marcus Tee and Alex Maklary did a great job of organising and motivating their chargers, but there could be only one victorious team on the day, as shown by the total points below. Well done to Lachlan's mob!
  1. Lachlan McMillan 316
  2. Ming Tee 296
  3. Alex Maklary's 293
  4. Marcus Tee 289
Full results can be found here, along with the performance standards that define the points calculations (here). We will continue to use this points system for the rest of the season, so keep logging your times, distances and heights to be in the running for more prizes.
