Northern Suburbs Little Athletics Centre

Northern Suburbs Little Athletics Centre is a community athletics club based in Lane Cove North, on Sydney's lower north shore. As part of the Little Athletics movement, it introduces children to the foundations of track and field, running, jumping and throwing, in a fun, supportive setting that prizes participation and personal improvement over pressure.

Families who come along describe a warm and welcoming environment with plenty of room to move. The grounds include a sandpit for long jump, a sprint straight and a full oval, giving young athletes the space to try a broad range of events and find what they enjoy. The emphasis is squarely on encouragement, with children cheered on as they build coordination, confidence and a love of being active.

Running as a Saturday-morning club, the centre is well suited to local families looking for an active, social weekend activity for their kids. It is the kind of grassroots sporting club where children make friends, develop fundamental movement skills and stay physically active through the athletics season, all within easy reach of the Lane Cove and northern suburbs community.
