Edith Herceg (Year 3) was recently awarded the Eastern Suburbs Little Athletics Club Under 9s Age Champion Runner Up for the 2024-25 season. It was her first season with Little Athletics, and she really enjoyed it. Edith was also selected for the club’s state relay team earlier in the season, which was an amazing experience for her. Edith was also recently awarded North Bondi SLSC Nippers under 8 2024-25 Age Champion Winner. She was awarded 1st place in Flags and 2nd in Sprint overall for her age group. Congratulations Edith on your achievements!
