We offer a little athletics program for U6-U17 age groups at the Bill Eaton Athletics Complex, Appin Street Wangaratta, Victoria (grass surface).  We offer a Summer Season program on Friday evenings, which includes a range of events (not cross country or race walking).

About Little Athletics Victoria

Little Athletics Victoria has over 20,000 members competing on a weekly basis at 100 Centres across Victoria.

Summer and winter seasons offer different programs. Track & Field is run through summer and during winter many centres operate Cross Country. Events run by centres vary for different age groups.

Northern Country Region:

Little Athletics Victoria is divided into seven regions.  Wangaratta is a member of the Northern Country Region (NCR).  The NCR consists of 21 Centres including Bendigo, Mansfield, Lavington-Jindera and Mt Beauty, and has its own Committee made up of representatives from various Centres.  The NCR’s main responsibilities include:

• Organising and conducting Region Relays, Track & Field and Cross Country events.
• Facilitating communication between LAVic and its Centres.  This is achieved by holding four Region meeting per year and through regular contact with Centre Secretaries.
• Promoting LAVic programs such as coaching, officiating and starters courses.
• Assisting member Centres to achieve the aims of Little Athletics.
