OUR PRINCIPLES
PERSONAL IMPROVEMENT
Every athlete is encouraged to strive to be their personal best. Badges are awarded throughout the season to celebrate personal improvements and a special PB day is held every season.
SPORTSMANSHIP
Being a good sport is the most important quality an athlete can possess. Through Little Athletics, our members learn this important skill and are actively encouraged to lead by example.
HAVE FUN
Having fun is the best part of Little Athletics. Many children across the age groups develop life-long friendships as a result of the fun they have during and waiting for competition.
ENCOURAGEMENT
At SLLAC we encourage participation from Tiny Tots to under 15. Our centre athletes inspire and encourage their fellow competitors, with encouragement awards presented at the end of the season.
RESPECT
At SLLAC we respect our fellow athletes, our volunteers and the families that attend. We aim to treat people fairly and with respect at all times.
INCLUSION
SLLAC is an inclusive and welcoming centre. We have one all-abilities running chair for use by those with physical limitations and we can modify events for those with a range of disabilities.
