Competition at Little Athletics 

Little Athletics is a great sport that offers many different levels of competition for our athletes. There are the Weekly Centre Competitions at our Centre, plus many weekends have Centre Run Carnivals (Such as Laidley Twilight or Ipswich Twilight). There are two Regional Carnivals each year (Regional Relays and Regional Champs), as well as the State Relays and State Championships run by Little Athletics Queensland.

Centre Competition 

Centre Competition is the bread and butter of Little Athletics. Each Friday we run a program consisting of four or five events per age group, which rotates generally over a period of six weeks. The program consists of all the different events available to each age group, as well as some training and play training sessions. 
*Due to the variability in athlete and volunteer numbers, sometimes alterations to the program are required. These are made at the discretion of the Centre Manager via the Committee.

Tiny Tots

Our Centre now offers a Tiny Tot program for your little athletes aged between three and five years! The program is designed around play based learning, and incorporates heaps of fun activities for your kids that will help them be little athletes in the future! Our program is coordinated by volunteers who have experience at Kindy so you have the confidence your kids are in Safe Hands!

Tiny Tot program is run only at the Centre Level, and there are never any times or distances recorded. It's all about the fun!

Regional Events

Each season our Centre participates in two regional events, the Regional Relays and Regional Championships. These events are organised by a regional committee, and are hosted by various centres from across the Region. 

Mt Tarampa is located in the Downs and South West Region, which includes centres from Laidley, through to Toowoomba, south to Warwick and west to Roma. The hosts and venues for these events are decided by the regional committee each year. The three main venues are Laidley Recreation Reserve, Springbrook Park at Withcott and O'Quinn Street Oval at Harristown in Toowoomba. 

We strongly encourage all athletes to attend these events! 

Centre Carnivals

Across the season, many Little Athletics Centres host their own Carnivals. These carnivals provide a great opportunity for our athletes to compete against kids from other Centres, and make some great friends! Some of our favourite carnivals are Laidley Twilight and Ipswich Twilight, but carnivals such as Caloundra, Glasshouse, Helensvale, Aspley and Jimboomba are always great days out. Upcoming carnivals are on our Team App Calendar, and advertised in the centre.  

LAQ Pentathlons and Carnivals 

Senior Carnival and Junior Pentathlon (in October each year) plus Junior Carnival and Senior Pentathlon (in March) provide another two great competitions for our athletes to compete against others from across the state! At the carnival events, athletes can pick up to five events to compete in! In pentathlon events, there are five set events for athletes to compete in!
