Maleny Little Athletics

Maleny Little Athletics Maleny LA's aims to encourage all children to develop positive attitudes by promoting a healthy life Without these volunteers a Centre cannot operate.

The Little Athletics motto of 'Family, Fun and Fitness' highlights that it is a community activity involving the whole family on a weekly basis. Athletes are encouraged to improve their own performances, sportsmanship and social skills, throughout the season. Family
Upon joining everyone becomes part of the Little Athletics family. Even though the children participate in a range of Track and Field events, grandparents and older siblings are involved in many different ways, such as coach, officials and administrator or committee member. Fun
A range of fun activities, such as play training, participating in weekly Centre competitions and participation in various LAQ carnivals and competitions, occurs at Little Athletics. Many Centres have coaches to help you improve and learn about athletics so you can get the most out of your involvement with Little Athletics. Learning is fun and in no time you will see your personal best (PB’s) performances improve. Fitness
By participating at Little Athletics, children are contributing to their own active and healthy lifestyle. This can be achieved via involvement in:
- outdoor activities
- LAQ competitions and carnivals
- coaching clinics and camps
- training sessions at local Centres
If you are fit it makes you feel good about yourself and you have the energy to do anything!

REGISTRATION BIBS – WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

With the new Little Athletics season just around the corner, here’s a quick reminder for returning families and some important information for those joining us for the first time!

πŸ“¬ Bibs are sent directly to families once an athlete is registered for the season.

Returning athletes will keep the same registration number as last season, with their new age group updated on their bib.

New this season: Both McDonald’s and Coles will feature on the registration bib, which means a separate Coles patch is no longer required on the uniform.

Need a replacement bib during the season? Replacement bibs can be ordered at any time through your Sport:80 portal.

For everything you need to know about registration bibs, visit:
