Little Athletics is a uniquely Australian sport for children 5-16 years. As the name suggests, it is based upon the sport of athletics (track & field) and the events are specially modified to suit the ages and abilities of children. A wide range of running, jumping, throwing and walking events is conducted.
The Tiny Tots program is for children from 3 to 5 years of age that encompasses skills based games that are focused on participation and fun. The fundamental skills of running, jumping and throwing are approached through appropriate activities for 3-5 year olds.

Parent Participation
Parent Participation Levy is paid with your registration and is fully refundable with a few small prerequisites. Parent Participation is a crucial part of Centenary Little Athletics as it helps create a supportive and encouraging environment for young athletes. When parents are involved they can provide emotional support, guidance and motivation to their children, helping them navigate the ups and downs of sport participation. Additionally, parent involvement can enhance the overall experience for the athletes by volunteering, cheering them on and fostering a sense of community within the Centenary Little Athletics Centre. It also allows parents to be actively engaged in their child's athletics journey, promoting a healthy parent child relationship and creating lasting memories together. In order to receive your Parent Participation Refund you must assist for 60% of meet nights PLUS 1 hour on the BBQ or in the canteen. Based on a season of 17 meets that is only 10 meet nights + 1 Hour. If you have any questions please reach out - [email protected] |
