                                       KEVIN OAKEY

Kevin was a member at Waverley from u7 to u12 (1971 - 1977) with the Waverley North Club.  Whilst being very competitive during this time, he found himself in one of Waverley's most talented age groups, and holds no Little Aths Records.  He did however begin to excel when he entered the Seniors ranks, and still holds the Athletics Waverley 400mh record.

In 1989, Kevin was selected for Australia to tour America for 6 weeks prior to the 1990 Commonwealth Games.  Ranked 2nd Nationally at this time, injury unfortunately dashed his Commonwealth Games selection hopes!  Kevin was in tough company at this time, with a "young up and comer" by the name of Rohan Robinson, showing some ability in the 400mh  :-)

Kevin is very passionate about sport, and coaches many of our current crop of athletes, through his position of PE Teacher at Jells Park Primary School.
