Our weekly Little Athletics Program is held on Saturday mornings at Len Shearer Reserve, Booragoon. The Summer season runs from October to March each year. We run two programs at Melville Little Athletics Centre that repeat throughout the season. Our last two programs each year are our Club Championships events.
The first competition is scheduled for Saturday 11 October 2025 with events commencing at 7:45am and usually ending by 11:30am. We also have two special twilight events in December and January which generally run from 4:45-8:30pm. With a break held over the Christmas / New Year period, from 7 December until 4 January, the summer season runs from 11 October until 22 March. Saturday competitions are not compulsory, but definitely encouraged, so if you are unable to attend on any particular Saturday you do not need to notify anyone.
Competitions are run on two programs, which rotate each week. These are referred to as Program 1 and Program 2 and can be found in the orange Annual Handbook, which will be provided to you after registration.
Club Championships are held towards the end of February / beginning of March, over the last two weeks of the Melville Athletics Club program. These are run following the normal Saturday competition process; however the athletes achieving the top three places will receive medals at the presentation ceremony held towards the end of each week’s program. U7 – U12 athletes achieving PBs will also receive ribbons.
Further details can be found in the Season Calendar, Program 1 and Program 2.
