It’s now confirmed that the Palmer Park track is expected to close from 14 April for two to three months for resurfacing. Unfortunately, this is a process that is carried out in warmer and drier conditions meaning it was not done during the winter.

Athletes with coaches should check with them what alternative training plans they have for that time and those that attend Friday sessions will have training out in the park while the track is closed.

When we return the track should be looking great, with the seats in the stand also being cleaned and fixed.
