Woden Thunder Athletics

Woden Thunder Athletics Our club strives to promote athletics for children and adults from the age of five and up. The motto of Little Athletics is "Family, Fun & Fitness."

Established in 1972, the 'Woden Little Athletics Club' strives to promote athletics for children and adolescents between the ages of five and sixteen. Our aim is to develop the confidence, fitness and athletic skills of young people in a safe and fun environment. The club is run by the parents of children who are registered with the club. By taking an active part in the running of the club, parent

s can have as much enjoyment as their children. Most tasks do not require a background in athletics but they are vital to ensuring an enjoyable athletics program each week. Woden Thunder Athletics is based at the Woden Athletics Park, Ainsworth St Phillip ACT. Juniors (U6-U17) compete at Little Athletics Saturday mornings with events starting from 8:30am through to approximately 11:30am from October to March. Children compete in their age groups doing various track and field events.
