Preston Athletic Club

Preston Athletic Club is a community athletics club based at Edwardes Lake Park in Reservoir, in Melbourne's north. Centred on track and field, the club brings together running, jumping and throwing disciplines in one welcoming setting, with a focus on helping members develop their athletic ability whatever their starting point.

What sets the club apart is its genuinely broad reach: it caters for athletes and para-athletes aged 12 and up across every level of experience, from social runners and the everyday "average Joe" right through to Olympic and Paralympic representatives. That mix creates an inclusive, supportive culture where new members train alongside seasoned competitors.

Members can take part in competitions and championship events, track their progress through a results hub, and represent the club in official branded uniforms. For people in Reservoir and the surrounding northern suburbs who want a structured, community-driven environment to build fitness, sprint, jump or throw, Preston Athletic Club offers a place to train, compete and improve at any age.
