Centre Programs

On a competition Saturday at City North, we utilise a rotation of 3-5 event programs to ensure every athlete has the chance to participate in all available events for their age group. The younger age groups will participate in a maximum of 4 events and the older age groups will have the ability to compete in 5 events. These will be a mix of available sprints, hurdles, distance track events; vertical and horizontal jumps; and throws.

Some events may be weather-dependent and the volunteer Centre Management Committee may make amendments to a schedule based on availability of volunteers, officials, and equipment.

The programs are based on Little Athletics Queensland's Standard Events.

Age Groupings

Age groups are defined by Little Athletics Queensland based on the year of birth.  This criteria is built into the registration process each season from Tiny Tots, to Under 6s - all the way to Under 17s.

Come and Try

 Don't miss out on this chance to see if Little Athletics is the right fit for you! Join us for a free two-week trial of Little Athletics. Sign up for this at our online registration portal but please note, do not enter a PlayOn! voucher.

This is a fantastic opportunity for new athletes to experience our program before committing to a full season. A two-week trial allows your athlete to experience both a training session (Tuesday and Thursday nights from 5:45 PM to 6:45 PM) and the more structured, event-based Saturday competitions (2:45 PM).

 

Standard Events

Little Athletics Queensland offers a variety of Track and Field events to athletes (U6 – U17s) depending on their age groups. Event distances and equipment specifications are graduated to match the growth of the athletes and encourage skill development.
