Riverstone & Districts Little Athletics Centre is an Athletics club located in Sydney, Australia. The club caters for children aged from Tiny Tots to under 17 years, with a focus on providing a fun and inclusive environment that emphasises sportsmanship. The club encourages athletes and their families to be their best while instilling habits that lead to better and healthier lives.
Riverstone L. A. C. welcomes children of all levels of ability and allows them to track their progress against their own performance, focusing on personal bests rather than placement in races or events.
The children's results are uploaded to a website called Results HQ, where they can track their progress throughout the season. The club competes at Riverstone Park on Friday evenings starting at 6 pm.
The Little Athletics slogan, “LITTLE ATHLETICS... FOR... FAMILY... FUN...
and... FITNESS,” reflects the club's approach to involving parents and family members in the athletes' experiences. The club encourages parents and family members to be involved and help their children learn, stay fit, train, compete, and make friends in a supportive athletics environment.
Riverstone & Districts Little Athletics Centre was formed in 1982 and celebrated its 35th anniversary in 2017. The club relies on volunteers who generously give their time, but it is the sponsors who contribute financially that ensure the club can provide an amazing family-oriented environment year after year. The contributions go towards maintaining and upgrading the facilities and equipment required for little athletics.
Membership prices for the club are $120 per season for Tiny Tots and $160 per season for all other age groups. The club offers themed fun nights throughout the season, such as Halloween night, where kids can dress up and enjoy some crazy fun.
In addition to regular athletics competitions, the club also offers a Run Club for athletes who want to focus on developing their running technique, endurance, speed, cardio capacity, and strength. Run Club training takes place on Fridays during the school term at Riverstone Park from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm. Interested individuals can register their interest on the club's website.
Overall, Riverstone & Districts Little Athletics Centre provides a fantastic opportunity for children to engage in athletics, develop their skills, and foster a love for sports in a supportive and fun-filled environment.
