WE ARE FAMILY, FUN & FITNESS IN THE HILLS!
Hills Little Athletics Centre is a successful club; through the support of parents, families and coaches together with a dedicated committee each season, we have a fantastic environment in which our Little Athletes have fun, fitness, thrive and excel.
The mission of Little Athletics Australia is “To develop children of all abilities by promoting positive attitudes and a healthy lifestyle through family and community involvement in athletic activities.”
Little Athletics is a uniquely Australian sport for children aged 3-17 years. As the name suggests, it is based on the sport of athletics (track and field) and the events are specially modified to suit the ages and abilities of children. A wide range of running, jumping, throwing and walking events is conducted. It is ideal training for all sports.
Little Athletics promotes that it is important to "Be your Best" ®. The emphasis is on fun, participation, performance, technique and getting involved with your family in physical and healthy activity. The motto of Little Athletics is "Family, Fun and Fitness".
Each Little Athlete is encouraged to improve their own effort without reference to other's performances. Results are posted in the Results HQ portal, so each child can monitor their own improvements. These results also being used by LASA for event qualification purposes.
