Set up a
local squad

No groups in your area? Maybe it's time for you to start one.

To allow more Australians to access athletics, our country needs more coaches, more venues, and more groups for people to join. We need them in the city, in the suburbs and in the regions. We need times that can accommodate adults with caring and work responsibilities.

Could it be you?

Have you already got a bit of background in one or more of the athletic events? Maybe you were good at it in school and want to get back into it, but you cannot find a group in your town.

Consider a coaching course through Australian Athletics. Either of these two will let you safely and effectively run a local group.

Adults are good to coach

  • Dedicated learners, and generally free of behavioural issues.
  • Disposable income, and they set their own bedtimes.
  • Big cheerleaders for their people.
  • Adults over thirty can smash out some pretty impressive efforts, if you are performance orientated.

It is generally rewarding, helping keep your community active and engaged.
