Local Carnivals around the Riverina!
Many Little A & Athletics Centres in NSW host carnivals and gala days, offering a fantastic opportunity for athletes to gain experience competing at different venues and against participants from other clubs. Participation in these events is entirely optional. Please find a list of upcoming carnivals in both the Eastern and Western Riverina below.
As you may know, the Bill Jacob Athletics Centre is currently undergoing redevelopment, which includes the installation of a new synthetic track. This project is scheduled for completion in early 2025, which means we won’t be able to hold our Annual Carnival this season. We do however, look forward to returning stronger than ever in the following season!
