19.01.2022 AIS Track & Field Centre Australian Institute of Sport Athletics Track created the perfect opportunity to capture a moment in history from the former track, whe...n Melissa Breen broke the National Australian Women’s 100m sprint record in 2014. The Sport Australia facilities team kept a lane marker from Breen's run and presented it to her as a memento of the occasion at the new track.

03.01.2022 Urgent advice regarding interstate hotspots. With the situation rapidly evolving across NSW as well as Victoria, we need to be extremely cautious about potentially introducing infection onto the AIS campus. We therefore require that if you have been in any of the NSW hotspots, anywhere in Victoria or in Batemans Bay since 13 July, that you do not attend the AIS site for at least 14 days since you were last in these locations. The same is to apply going forward for any new hot...spots identified by ACT Health. We are in a strong position in the ACT at the moment, but we all need to work together as a community to ensure it stays that way. If you develop any COVID-19 symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, muscle aches, unexplained fatigue) you should self-isolate and be tested. Please keep an eye on the latest advice at www.covid19.act.gov.au and comply with any Public Health Directions regarding self-isolation. We thank you for your cooperation.
