Toowoomba Little Athletics Events Calendar
Plan Ahead! Find an athletics event you want to compete in and lock it in.
For everyone new to Little Athletics and how it all works, our club holds weekly Centre Competitions for our members that provide the opportunity for athletes to practice and hone their skills and technique.
There’s extra optional events for athletes who are keen to travel to other clubs as well as compete at regional, state and national levels.
We also occasionally host ‘Twilight’ competitions on a Friday night throughout the season and designated training days (depending on volunteer coach availability).
For more information on upcoming events, check out the calendar below or visit the Toowoomba Little Athletics Facebook page. To view the weekly centre competition event programs, visit our About Little A’s page.
