Introduction

We know that there are so many kids out there that just can't wait to get stuck in to the start of the Little Athletics season and here at Little Athletics ACT we want to bring that to you just a little bit sooner!

With that in mind, we are proud to bring you the first ever ‘Little Athletics ACT – Stay Active Challenge!’

This challenge will see four challenges released each week for two different age cohorts to walk the Little Athletes through a fun activity/training session and a mini event! All of these events can be done from your living room, backyard, or a nearby community oval.

It is a great opportunity for Little Athletes to develop skills that are based on the core principles of Little Athletics and the skills of running, jumping the throwing and get a headstart on their friends when the season kicks off!
