Southern
Metropolitan Regional Championships
To explain,
LAANSW conducts five Regional Carnivals across NSW and entry is only
by qualifying at one of the 24 earlier Zone Carnivals. We participate in
the Inner City Zone Carnival against five local
clubs (See "Zone Results" on the menu alongside) and from there, the first
four athletes in each event progress to the Regional Carnival. There they
compete against similar qualifiers from 34 nearby clubs in the
Southern Metropolitan Region (No 3) Carnival. Our
Zone is arguably the most competitve in
NSW and just to get to the Regional Carnival should be regarded as
a compliment to the athlete's ability.
The clubs we compete against are:- Mid West
Metropolitan Zone - Bankstown (Centre No 5), Everley Park (64),
Fairfield (18), Girraween (51), Greystanes (39), Holroyd (6), Smithfield
(146), Tiger West (68); Southern Metropolitan Zone – Helensburgh
(44), Illawong (70), Port Hacking (110), Revesby Workers (136), St George
(9), Sutherland (11); South West Metropolitan Zone –
Ambarvale (58), Camden (61), Campbelltown Collegians (36), Douglas Park
(179), Escol Park (202), Ingleburn (37).

The 2006-07 Southern Metropolitan
Region Carnival
Of our 48 athletes who qualified at Zone for the
Regional Carnival, 9 progressed through to the State Carnival at Homebush,
March 17 & 18. A magificent achievement. Two of them, Tom and Rifat,
qualified for all four of their events. How good is that? Our Junior Boys
Relay team came 1st while the SB team also qualified. Despite vigorous
protests, our Junior Girls team, which won at Zone, was disqualified
days later on a technicality, long after the team had been accepted and
then allowed to run. There’s something wrong with a system that
treats kids that way.

Lorkin (60H, 70m, 100m, 200m); B11 JP Curran (400m, 800m); G11 Tiana
