The Little Athletics Summer Season

The little athletics summer season will run from the 19th September 2024 to March 2025. First competition day is Saturday 5th October.

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ

Parent & Athlete Commitments

Before Joining HWLAC Little Athletics, we just want to make you aware of the parent/guardian/athlete requirements and commitments.

 


  • Training: Training is held two times per week with the main training session on Thursday. Whilst we recommend you try and attend at least one session, they are not compulsory. At least 1 parent/guardian must be in attendance when your athlete is at training. We do ask that where possible you get involved and assist. This may be things like helping set up equipment, assisting with controlling and directing the kids or assisting the coaches with coaching cues and technique.

 

  • Competition: When you join, it is a requirement that you attend as many competition days as you can. On Competition Days, 1 family representative will be required to volunteer to help run one of the many sites. These are easy tasks where you will work under a key official and fulfil duties such as being a recorder, assisting with measurements, retrieving equipment and/or organising/directing athletes. You can expect to be rostered on approx 7-8 times during the season.

Coaches & Parent Helpers

This club is run by volunteers and as we are a family club, we ask all Parents to have an active role in all training sessions. The coaches need your assistance in helping run activity stations as the more help we have the better quality of training we can achieve making it more enjoyable for everyone. The kids will also love that you are out there with them. No experience in coaching is necessary, just a fun positive attitude is all that’s needed. Just like the kids, learn as you go. We have some excellent training videos you can watch to learn the basics, but essentially we need you there to help direct and keep the athletes safe.

 

Training & Safety Policy

The Club will ensure the utmost duty of care in providing your child/ren with a safe and pleasant environment in which to train.  We do however have a training policy that requires a parent or guardian to be present and onsite at all times.

 

The Club will not take responsibility for your child’s safety if they are left unattended. If you are unable to remain at training, we suggest you make friends with other parent/s and ask them to be responsible for your child/ren, if they need to be taken to the toilet.

 

Our agreement with the Primary School only covers the oval grounds and NOT THE PLAYGROUNDS. The school has asked us, not to allow the kids to play on any of their playgrounds at all.
