Mums, dads, officials and spectators can also participate so remember to wear your running/walking gear.

Centre Committee members will be collecting donations throughout the night for the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal.  The Centre that raises the most funds and/or covers the most distance in the Relaython will be recognised with a trophy at the annual LAVIC Centrefest in 2017.

Go Team Moorabbin!

Points are awarded for the performance in each individual discipline and are then combined at the conclusion to determine a total point score.

During the week of 28 November 2016 to 2 December 2016, LAVic will send all athletes an e-certificate acknowledging their participation and information for entry to the State Multi-Event Championships, for U9 – U15 athletes.
