Registration Information
Little Athletics is all about fun, fitness and family. Athletes run, jump and throw their way through a great range of events each week, but more than anything, it’s about having a go, doing your best and being part of the pack.
All abilities are welcome, always.

— LITTLE ATHLETICS —
Our weekly competition program for children in age groups Under 6 through to Under 17.
Events vary depending on age (eg. no triple jump or javelin until U11’s). Modified events can are used where possible for younger age groups.
— TINY TOTS —
A fun, play-based program for our youngest Wolf Pack members aged 3 to 4, focused on running, jumping and throwing through games. There are no times, places or measurements, just skill-building and fun. A parent or carer stays alongside their Tiny Tot for the whole session.

Working Out Your Child’s Age Group
Age groups are based on the age your child turns during the year (calculated from 1 January), and your child stays in that same age group for the whole season. Find your child’s birth year below, or use the LAQ age group calculator.
Proof of age
New members need to provide proof of age (a birth certificate or passport) at registration, or within 28 days of the start of competition.
