What Happens Each Week?

Little Athletics combines structured competition, skill development and plenty of fun.  Our weekly program gives every athlete the opportunity to learn, improve and enjoy a wide variety of athletics events throughout the season.

Saturday Morning Competition

Field events

  • Long Jump
  • Triple Jump (U11+)

Results are recorded so athletes can track their progress and celebrate personal bests throughout the season.
