LIGHTNING DID NOT STRIKE TWICE !
For the second session of WAD 2009, nothing happened to disturb the proceedings.  To give the athletes more time to arrive without missing anything, we moved the starting time back to 0900.
We had selected (from the list of events offered by IAAF) to stage the following events for the younger age-group (born in 1994, 1995, or 1996.):-Â Â 80m., 150m., 1000m., Long Jump, Shot Putt.
51 boys (from 6 schools) and 27 girls (from 3 schools) participated.  All the athletes helped to create a supportive atmosphere (without the need for loud music !)  With nothing at stake except pride and a T-shirt, there were nevertheless a number of exciting races.  The field for the Boys' 80m. and 150m. required six Heats each.  Similarly the Long Jumps were keenly contested by numbers.
