What is Little Athletics?

HELLO SUMMER!

Our summer season runs from October to March and focuses on the skills required for track & field athletics. We provide training and competition opportunities in two different categories: Tiny tots (4 years olds), Little athletics (5-18 year olds).

Little Athletics is a program of running, jumping, throwing and walking specifically designed to be fun yet provide a challenge for young athletes.  Eastern Hills Little Athletics Centre runs a summer season from October to March using programs of activities that cover many track and field disciplines.

Training is every Wednesday commencing at 4:15 pm to 5:30pm for Little Athletes (birth dates 2020 to 2017 ) and 5:15pm – 6:30pm for athletes (2016 to 2009). Tiny Tots ( 2021 babies ) are fortnightly 4:30 till 5:15/5:30

Centre competitions provide an opportunity for athletes to compete against their fellow EHLAC athletes and are held on Saturday mornings starting at 8am sharp with a few changing to Friday evenings around the Christmas/New Year period to avoid the heat.

Please check the Calendar and Programs page for full season details.

Training and Centre competitions are held at Mundaring Recreation Grounds, Mundaring Weir Road.

Specialist training sessions are held from time to time for limited numbers on a Monday after noon.
