Trialing Little Athletics
For those families who have not been involved in Little Athletics before, we offer the opportunity for your children to trial Little Athletics for free. Trialers are welcome to join-in all the activities that are available to members on any 2 Fridays or Saturdays during the season. Once the trial is complete, you have the opportunity to register as a member of the centre for the season.
If you wish to trial, you can select that option during the registration process on the Little Athletics Victoria portal. To access the portal, please click on the button at the top or the bottom of this page.
Age Group Calculator
All Little Athletes compete with other children of their same age. The age group for your child is determined by the year of their child’s birth. The age group will be the next number above the age which your child turns in 2021. For example, a child that turns 10 in 2021 will be in the Under 11 group. For more information, please click on the link below.
Children that are between the ages of 5 and 15 years old on December 31, 2021 are invited to register. For children who turn 5 just after the New Year, please contact Sandringham Little Aths for more information at [email protected].
For more information, please visit LA Victoria Age Group Calculator.
