Welcome to Minchinbury Little Athletics
Minchinbury Little Athletics Centre (LAC) holds our competitions on Friday nights, located at Minchinbury Reserve, Minchin Drive, Minchinbury.
Competition
Our first competition night for 2026/2027 will be Friday 11th September.
Minchinbury LAC offers competitions for all registered athletes aged 3 (born 2022 and 3 at the time of registration) to 20 years old.
Competition starts at 6:00 pm, and we would like to have the children and parents there by 5:50 pm so that parents can assist in running the night.
Please ensure you have completed the full registration process, including pick up of registration packs, bibs, and purchase of any compulsory uniform needs, before the start of our first competition night. Details of pick up can be found in the welcome letter upon registration.
Finishing time for Tiny Tots and 6's should be around 7.30 pm; all other age groups should be finished by 8.30 pm to 9.30 pm, depending on parent support and the number of athletes in each age group.
As we begin a new season, please be patient with event run times and finishing times as people are learning how to run events and children are learning how to participate in these events.
Pre-season uniform, bib collection and registration enquiries, including trial sign-ups for new members only:
These can be collected from Minchinbury Oval, Minchin Drive, Minchinbury NSW 2770. Collect this on the following Fridays between 6 pm and 8 pm. This must be collected before an athlete can compete.

Please remember to bring an original Birth Certificate or Passport with you if you did not upload this during your registration for the 2026/2027 season or for trial sign-up.
Volunteering and committee.
We are always looking for more volunteers; they are vital to the successful running of each competition night. So if you think you might be able to help even in a small way, come and speak to any of your friendly committee members!
Competition pathways
Through Minchinbury LAC and in conjunction with Athletics NSW and Australian Athletics, we offer several competitive pathways for children aged 8 and above. Please keep an eye out for more information as it becomes available.
Events throughout the year
Throughout the year, we host several events and fun nights. A list of these can be found on our calendar tab, or in the centre handbook. We will also post reminders about these events throughout the season.
Weather updates
While we endeavour to run each night and give as much notice as possible if a competition night is cancelled, unfortunately some nights we are at the mercy of the weather. In these cases, please assume that the competition will run as normal. We will endeavour to post an update if a competition is not going ahead on Facebook and via email; however, we cannot guarantee how close to the competition start this will be.
We look forward to seeing you this season!
