21.01.2022 We had several enquires about results last night so here is a reminder for those who would like to view and track their little athletes results: 1. Click the link to ResultsHQ 2. Choose ‘trouble logging in’ 3. Enter the email address you used to sign your child up for little A’s 4. Follow the prompts in the email sent to you to reset your password.... 5. Check on your child’s results weekly, focusing on improvement over the season rather than their finishing position. https://resultshq.com.au/Login/Index/

20.01.2022 Information regarding 2020/21 Youth State Championships for participants aged U13 - U17. Entries to the Championship will be based off qualifying standards. To access the qualifying standards please see below. Please note meeting the qualifying standard does not guarantee entry into the Championship. A participant is only able to enter in up to four (4) events, and the qualifying standards are able to be achieved at your centre, another centre or any gala day/meet hosted in a... Zone and Region in NSW in the 2020/21 season. The registration process will be a direct entry via an online portal. Athletes must include where the standard was achieved in the registration process. More information in regards to the entry portal will be communicated closer to the date of entries opening. Under the current Public Health Order the top two results per region, pending the standard being met, will progress to State Championships and then the next best eight across the state. Entries will open Monday, 18 January and close 5pm Sunday 21 February. Centres will be advised of athletes success in qualifying by 28 February.

13.01.2022 It was a fantastic Club night on Friday. Storms threatened but we only got a few drops. A total of 26 PBS were broken from the 67% of our athletes in attendance. The field event results are available on ResultsHQ and the track will be uploaded soon. Thank you to all the parents who step up each week to help run our comp nights. Parent involvement is a big part of Little A’s and we are very grateful for your support! It’s part of what makes our Club great! There are still some athletes who haven’t started the season yet and we look forward to seeing them soon. Don’t forget that our canteen is open each comp night and all proceeds go back to the club. Drinks, sausages, ice blocks and lollipops are available for purchase by either cash or card.

12.01.2022 We will be holding Program 4 this week. We apologise for the change of order. However, many of our Committee are unable to attend next Friday. Given the heavy setup load for hurdles, we have pulled this program forward to ensure athletes have a chance to post qualifying results for these events to include in entries for the State Qualifying Competition. We would appreciate any assistance for equipment set up from 4.45pm. See you on the track!

09.01.2022 It’s program 3 tonight for our last comp night for 2021. All help for set up would be greatly appreciated as we will be light on for Committee members. See you on the track.

08.01.2022 It’s program 1 this week. Please note that we have made a few slight changes to the program to prevent clogs at the 200m start. This will be a trial and we appreciate your patience. The u7 and u8 age groups are on equipment this week. We would appreciate your help with set up from 5pm. See you on track!

08.01.2022 More information regarding changes to the u9-u12 LANSW State Championships u13-u17 LANSW Youth Championships Please note that we received confirmation this week that both pathways will require athletes to meet qualifying standards that must be achieved at Little As comp nights in the current season (2020/21). Results from other events (school, previous seasons, gala days etc) will not be accepted by LANSW.... We will have completed 2 full rotations of the programs by next Friday (our last comp night for 2020). Our first comp night for 2021 will be on Friday 29th January. https://lansw.com.au/championships/

07.01.2022 Program 4 for Friday 6/11/2020! With the sprint hurdles, it’s a huge equipment set up night. The U9 and u10 age groups are on set up duty and we would be very grateful for assistance from these families to set up from 4.45pm. Please remember that an adult must be on the grounds to supervise each athlete (or family of athletes). Unfortunately, there have been some drop and runs over the last few weeks which causes safety concerns as well as putting increased pressure on adults present to run events. Please help us to help the kids! It looks like a cool evening tomorrow night, so please remember to bring a jumper to put on afterwards. Or buy a sausage from the canteen to warm up instead!

07.01.2022 We are holding another informative Zoom session with Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist, Scott Wilson, on Monday 23/11/2020. What time suits you best? What information are you keen to hear about so that you can best support your sporting child? How much training is too much? What is the difference between a supportive parent and a pushy parent?... What can I do to reduce the risk of injury? When should my child choose 1 sport to specialise in? Other ideas? We’d love to hear your ideas. Please post them in the comments section below. See more
