πŸ‘ŸπŸ’š WHAT SHOES CAN MY ATHLETE WEAR? πŸ’™πŸ‘Ÿ
With the new athletics season almost here, one of the questions we often get from families is β€œWhat shoes does my child need for Little Athletics?” πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ
The good news is β€” you don’t need expensive or specialised shoes to get started!
πŸ‘Ÿ FOR ALL ATHLETES
A comfortable pair of enclosed running shoes/runners is all your athlete needs for regular Little Athletics events. Shoes must be worn while competing.
🚫 Football boots and cleats are NOT permitted.
⚑ WHAT ABOUT SPIKES?
Spike shoes are completely optional and are only permitted for certain age groups and events.
πŸ”΄ U6–U10: No spike shoes permitted.
πŸ”΅ U11–U12: Spikes may be worn for approved events including laned track events, Long Jump, Triple Jump, High Jump and Javelin. No spikes for the 800m or 1500m.
🟒 U13–U17: Spikes may be worn for approved events including track events (excluding Race Walking), Long Jump, Triple Jump, High Jump and Javelin.
⚠️ A quick spike safety reminder: Spike shoes should only be put on immediately before the event they're being used for and removed afterwards. They should be carried safely between events, not worn while walking around the grounds.
πŸ’šπŸ’™ So, especially for our new families, there’s no need to rush out and buy spikes! A good pair of comfortable runners is the perfect place to start. As athletes get older and gain experience, spikes can be considered if appropriate.
πŸ“Œ SAVE this handy guide so you know exactly what your athlete can wear this season β€” and feel free to share it with another new Mingara family!
πŸ‘ŸπŸƒ Right shoes on, laces tied… and we’re ready to RUN, JUMP & THROW! πŸ’šπŸ’™

πŸš¨πŸ’š WE NEED YOU! AGE MANAGERS WANTED πŸ’™πŸš¨

Our 2026/27 season is almost here, and we’re looking for two fantastic volunteers to step up and help lead some of our young Mingara athletes on Friday nights! πŸ™Œ

We currently need an Age Manager for:
πŸ‘§ 10 Girls
πŸ‘¦ Combined 12/13 Boys

You don’t need to be an athletics expert or have all the answers β€” we’ll support you along the way! πŸ’šπŸ’™

Age Managers play such an important role in our Friday nights β€” helping keep the group together, moving athletes through their events, encouraging everyone to have a go and, most importantly, helping create a fun and positive experience for our kids. 🌟
It’s also a brilliant way to get involved rather than watching from the sidelines β€” and you’ll have a whole group of athletes very quickly become your little team! πŸ₯°

πŸ™‹β€β™€οΈπŸ™‹β€β™‚οΈ Could this be you?
If you’re a parent or carer from either of these groups and would be happy to put your hand up, please comment below or send the club a message.

πŸ’š Many hands make light work β€” and our club simply couldn’t run without our amazing volunteers. πŸ’™

Sad to report that Martin Ayres... passed away on Friday, after a long illness. This was the best photo I could find. he was a bit elusive :). He was a very enthusiastic member athlete and volunteer of our Senior Club for over 10 years. Pic here is receiving his award for attending over 100 training sessions in 2010!! He volunteered many more times than that.
RIP Martin
