Little Athletics is up and away

Horsham Little Athletics Centre will launch its 2020-21 season tonight after a successful ‘come and try’ event last week.

Young sporting enthusiasts, including Archer Lawson, made the most of an opportunity to try a range of track and field events at Dudley Cornell Park.

President Nigel Binney said it was ‘tremendous’ to see 40 new athletes at the come and try night.

“The kids seemed to have a great time,” he said. “There is always a few nerves, but once they get into the swing of it, there’s no holding them back. We had a lot of parent helpers too. Their support is so vital to running our competition each week.”

The 2020-21 season kicks off at the Horsham centre today at 5.15pm, under COVID-safe guidelines. Mr Binney said registrations looked positive.

“The numbers are building each day and we’re expecting more than 120 to join by the end of the week,” he said. 

He said new athletes were still welcome. “It doesn’t matter if you missed the come and try night. You can still come down and be part of the fun,” he said.
