Nowra Athletics Club is ready to start the new and exciting 2016/17 athletic season. It will no doubt be an exciting year with the recent 2016 Rio Olympic Games and Para Olympics inspiring people to join the sport of athletics.
Nowra Athletics Club encourages everyone to join the Club today and be part of the growing Athletics community as well as Athletics NSW – Australia’s largest senior Athletics Association.
By joining the Club you have the opportunity to be involved with a great organisation, great people and great events.
Nowra Athletics Club Track and Field Competition is conducted each Wednesday night from 6pm at Shoalhaven High School grounds with a variety of running, throwing and jumping events on offer each week. It’s a great excuse to catch up with family and friends for a smile and laugh while getting active in the great outdoors!
The focus is on having fun in a non-judgemental environment where people of all ages and abilities are encouraged to have a go.
There are a variety of membership options available to suit the level of motivation.
For those looking for competition, within the wider Athletics calendar there are a number of opportunities for athletes searching for high quality track and field meets to compete with State Championships, Treloar Shield, All-comers and other meets with AA permit status (AA permit status enables athletes to qualify for national and International competitions). There are also a number of grass root level track and field competitions.. These more relaxed/casual competitions may be more appealing to athletes in the area and first time participants. In addition there are a number of alternate competition offerings with more of an emphasis on fun which may hold more appeal to the general community.
Whatever your level of involvement Nowra Athletics Club can offer you the support and encouragement to participate.
In addition Nowra Athletics Club also offer a Summer Road Running competition which is a 6km road run with a social yet competitive vibe. Road Running commences on 24th September with the first run starting at Nowra Showground Added area from 4.30pm.
You can register on-line to become a member or come along on Wednesday night and speak to a committee member about membership. Information is also available on the website or via links from the facebook page.
Come get involved in the great sport of Athletics!
