Western Blues Little Athletics promotes ‘Family, Fun and Fitness’. Our athletic events aim to develop good sportsmanship, develop athletic skills and help build the self-esteem of each athlete in a safe environment. Our Committee promotes a Child Safe Centre that complies with the Australian guidelines. We encourage each child to achieve their own personal best and aim to assist your child develop their sporting abilities as well as increase their fitness. Little Athletics is also a place to make new friends. Little Athletics is run during the summer months. Our Club Competition nights are on Friday nights, starting at 5.30pm. Each Club Competition night we do need parents to volunteer to help run an age group, record the results, help out in the canteen and unpack/pack up the equipment. Little Athletics centres do not operate without the assistance of parents and volunteers. We encourage all parents to help out to ensure that the Centre runs smoothly. We encourage all parents to become involved, especially parents who were Little Athletics members themselves or who competed in sports. Little Athletics NSW is the governing body for all Little Athletics centres. Little Athletics is one of the very few sports where parents can be fully involved in their childrens sporting development and get involved beyond the spectator level. We cater for athletes of mixed abilities 3 -17 years of age and provide an inclusive environment in which barriers to involvement are removed and all people with a disability feel welcome and comfortable to participate.
