Armidale Athletics Club - For ages 3+
Winter cross country season commences May 2026 (pending)
Summer athletics season commences October 2026

Our primary aim is to bring together athletes and their families in a range of outdoor physical activities with family involvement. Family involvement is of paramount importance. Not only do parents get to share in their child’s enjoyment, but they get to see their child develop new skills in the variety of events offered by the centre. At least 1 parent/caregiver per family is required to activel

πŸŒ§οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Winter Cross Country Series – Round 12 πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸŒ§οΈ

Can you believe we're already up to Round 12? That means there's just TWO weeks to go in this year's Winter Cross Country Series!

Last week (Round 11) was a little quieter than usual after the heavens opened just before we were due to start. 🌧️ Despite the prospect of running in the rain, our dedicated runners still turned up ready to go. Thankfully, as quickly as the rain arrived, it disappeared again, leaving us with beautiful blue skies... although wow, it was cold! πŸ₯Ά

A huge congratulations to everyone who braved the conditionsβ€”we love seeing the determination and commitment our runners continue to show each week.

πŸ“Š Round 11 Results are attached below. Well done to everyone who took part!

πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’šπŸ’› COME & TRY ATHLETICS – 2026/27! πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

Thinking about giving athletics a go? Come down to Harris Park and see what Armidale Athletics Club is all about!

Our Come & Try Days are FREE and a great opportunity for new athletes to experience athletics before committing to the season. Run, jump, throw, meet our committee and Age Managers, check out the facilities and have some fun! 🌟

πŸ“… Wednesday 7 October & Wednesday 14 October 2026
πŸ“ Harris Park Oval, Kirkwood Street
⏰ Registration from 4:00pm | Warm-up 4:15pm | Activities from 4:30pm

We’ll have plenty happening across the track and field, and of course our canteen will be open with our $1 sausage sizzle! 🌭

πŸ“£ IMPORTANT FOR RETURNING ATHLETES

Due to updated insurance requirements, athletes who have been registered with Armidale Athletics Club in a previous season must be registered for the 2026–27 season BEFORE attending a Come & Try session.

Come & Try is designed to allow new athletes to experience athletics before registering. Previous-season athletes are not covered to participate through Come & Try and therefore need to complete their 2026–27 registration first.

πŸ’š New to athletics? Come along and give it a try!
πŸ’› Returning athlete? Get your 2026–27 registration sorted and then come join the fun!

Our regular Wednesday competition rounds kick off 21 October 2026.

Keep an eye on our page β€” Come & Try RSVPs will open shortly! We’ll be asking families to RSVP so we know how many volunteers (and sausages! 🌭) we need.

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back to Harris Park for another fantastic season! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸ’šπŸ’›
