WE ARE FAMILY, FUN AND FITNESS

Little Athletics runs through summer, from early October to the end of March the following year. Training sessions run on Friday nights from 5pm.

Our under 6 athletes start out with on-track sessions, which are fun activities designed to teach the basic skills of athletics. They will also try out events such as 70m and 100m Sprints, 200m, Long Jump, Shot Put and Discus.

As the children grow they are progressively introduced to more technical events such as High Jump and Hurdles. Longer distance running events such as 400m, 800m and 1500m are also included, as well as Javelin and Triple Jump.

Yes. for up to 2 trial sessions, but note that performances during free trial sessions won’t be recorded, therefore if you’re sure your child is keen please complete a full registration up front instead of a trial. The trial period is available only during the first 3 weeks of the season

Cancellation of weekly competition programs can occur throughout the season due to wet weather or excessive heat conditions. If you think that the program might be cancelled check the Warrnambool Little Athletics Facebook Page before the session. The decision to cancel a program is not taken lightly and is made by committee with the safety of athletes and officials as their prime concern

Yes! Your Registration Chest Patch includes a barcode which identifies your child in the results system. Without a patch results cannot be recorded.

Duties do not require any specialist knowledge and our committee members are always available to provide guidance if you are unsure on what the duty entails.
