Rye Gift Athletics Carnival

In January 2025 Rotary Rosebud-Rye was pleased to again support the Rye Sports and Social Club who present the annual Rye’s premier event - the Rye Gift, which in 2025 drew a record number of entries. 

 

The Club sponsored the Junior Gift which this year attracted 99 juniors who contested the Junior Gift with competitors coming from clubs as far away as Warrnambool.

 

The Rye Sports and Social Club consists of six member clubs that work together to make the Rye Gift a huge success for the past 49 years.

The events are conducted by the Victorian Athletic League using electronic timing to determine winners.  This year, the competition was so fierce that one final event was decided by one-hundredth of a second.  A record number of 736 VAL registered athletes contested the day’s events with clubs coming from Victoria-wide and including one international competitor from Scotland.

 

 

Rotary Club President 2025-2025 Adele Mee, and PDG Paul Mee were on hand to congratulate the winners of the 2025 Junior Gift - a part of the 49th year of the running of the Rye Gift - a favourite annual Athletics Carnival and Family Fun Day held each January.
