Grab a cuppa and have a read……

Registrations are NOW open for athletes born 2007 to 2018 (Please note, Redcliffe Little Athletics does not provide a Tiny Tots program)

How to sign up:
1. Please note and this is very important. Little Athletics is run entirely by amazing volunteers and parents. This sport ONLY operates and works when everyone helps out – be it marshalling athletes, helping at events, time keeping, recording times/distances, in the canteen, cleaning, fundraisers, working bees etc etc IF you are a parent/guardian who is not willing to assist/volunteer/help out on a regular basis, then this is NOT the sport for your child. Please try one of the many, many, many other sports available.

2. Having satisfied criteria 1, please check if you’re eligible for a $150 Getting Started Voucher from the Qld Government (Health Care Card and Pension Card holders are) and apply here: https://www.qld.gov.au/recreation/sports/funding/fairplay/apply

2023-24 Redcliffe Little Athletic’s costs:
- $320 for child one ($80 rebated after parent helps 10 nights)
- $210 for 2nd child
- $150 for 3rd and subsequent children registered.
IF you require a payment scheme, a $100 per child deposit is required – please see one of our committee at sign up days to discuss.

Fees include:
- Friday night competitions from 1st September 2023 til mid March 2024 (with 2-3 weeks break over Christmas) – 6ish months! That’s brilliant value, but wait there’s more…..
