About
Hay Little Athletics

Hay Little Athletics is a grassroots is a community-based organisation dedicated to nurturing the athletic talents and overall development of young children. We are designed for kids aged 3 to 17 years and serve as an ideal entry point into the world of sports and athletics. We play a crucial role in promoting physical fitness, skill development, and sportsmanship amonst our children whilst fostering a sense of belonging within the local community. We are completely run by volunteers and parents, who are passionate about providing young athletes with opportunities to explore various track and field events. Our Little Athletics club offers a wide range of activities, including running, jumping, and throwing events, which help children develop fundamental skills, strength, and coordination. Through participation the children have the chance to discover their interests and talents in sports, setting the foundation for a lifelong love of athletics. We are a friendly, inclusive, and non-competitive club. Emphasis is placed on personal improvement, teamwork, and having fun, rather than on winning or losing. It's a place where children can make new friends, learn valuable life lessons, and build confidence as they progress in their athletic journeys.

Our
History

Hay Little Athletics has been a cornerstone of the Hay community for decades. Our perpetual trophies showcase names of parents and grandparents of our current athletes, reflecting a rich legacy. Although the club has faced periods of inactivity due to limited interest, funding, and volunteers, it was most recently paused during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, recognising the need for a local athletics option as many athletes were traveling to Deniliquin or Griffith to compete, the club was revitalised. Since then, we have celebrated significant achievements, including being named the Good Sports Junior Club of the Year in 2023.
