Edwin Flack Reserve was the place to be on Saturday morning, with over 300 little athletes taking to the track.
This week was a special week for the youngsters as it was the second attempt on many events, meaning personal bests were on the horizon.
A whopping 563 PB’s were recorded from the future Olympians with 14 athletes recording five.
In addition to the shattering of personal records, the Berwick Little Athletics club were gladly forced to re-write its record books, with two centre records broken.
Racing at the ground named after great Aussie sprinter – Edwin Flack – Portia Miller (under-10 girls) broke the record for the 200m dash with a dazzling time of 32.40 seconds – look out for Portia at the 2032 Brisbane Olympics.
Theodore Eliadis (under-13 boys) was the other record breaker, this time in the shot put, recording a throw of 12.66m.
The Club will have three more programs before the holiday break, before returning in January.
