ABOUT WAVERLEY LITTLE ATHLETICS CENTRE
Little Athletics is a Centre based Track & Field competition for children aged between 5 and 16. For more details check out What is Little Athletics? or download flyer.
Waverley Little Athletics Centre is based at Central Reserve Athletics Track in Glen Waverley, is affiliated with Little Athletics Victoria and is part of the Southern Metropolitan Region (SMR). Not near Glen Waverley? Find your nearest Centre.
Little Athletics is a volunteer run, community based, non profit organisation providing athletic opportunities for our children. Our motto is Family, Fun, Fitness. Little Athletics is one of the few sports where parents can become fully involved in their child's sporting interests. Our centre has an enthusiastic committee responsible for organising the centre, and we need parents to help out on Saturday mornings at the events.
On Sat mornings, the children go around in their age groups and compete in 4 - 5 different athletic events each week, with an emphasis on personal bests and learning athletic skills and improving techniques. Extra coaching available mid-week.
WAVERLEY - A CHILD SAFE CENTRE
WLAC is a Child Safe Centre. Kids, we expect you to enjoy doing athletics in a fun, safe environment with your friends.
We follow all LAVic and Child Safe Guidelines to ensure the safety and security of our children.
