Little aths registration day

Woy Woy Peninsula Little Athletics will have its first registration day on Sunday, September 9, from 10am at McEvoy Oval, Umina.

Field events coach Mr Mark Wilson said: "Woy Woy Peninsula Little Athletics runs at McEvoy Oval, Umina, every Friday night from 6pm for kids under 6 right up to under 17.

"We are a non-profit organisation that raises funds through the support of the local community.

"We are run solely by volunteers who put their heart and soul into making the club a success," Mr Wilson said.

"Little Athletics is all about the development of the children emphasising on positive attitudes and healthy lifestyles.

"It's a family movement in which the mums, dads and children can do something together. "The children compete and parents get involved by assisting on the night.

"For those athletes that enjoy extra competition, zone championships are also available to compete in.

"Those selected based on top places move onto regional competition," Mr Wilson said.

Woy Woy also offers coaching on Tuesday and Thursday nights during competition season.

Interested families should note that all registrations must be completed online for the 2018 season, but payments can still be made in person at collection day.
