Run Jump Throw.  


​Run Jump Throw will be restarting in October 2024, and will be held every Wednesday from 5:30pm till 6:30pm.

This programme is offered to 6 - 10 year olds of all abilities, and uses modified equipment and games to help maximise participation and enjoyment.

The programme uses a bottom-up approach to teach skills and adaptations needed for athletics movements – so participants can learn the necessary fundamental skills and basic movement patterns in an inclusive, positive and supportive environment, and continue to refine their skills through our athletics club following on after they leave the programme.

​Participants will learn, grow their confidence and be challenged at their own pace. 

     * Venue: TGHS,  Martins Field, Timaru
     * Time:    5:30pm - 6:30pm

Athletics Needs You!  

VOLUNTEER OFFICIALS MAKE IT HAPPEN!

As a community we are dependant on volunteer helpers and officials, without whom we are unable to run regional, school, inter-club or even club events.

New Zealand Athletics along with Athletics Canterbury offer an official's training programme, which can be done either in person or online.

Participating in these programmes will help you better understand the basic rules of each event, and are open to everyone - including parents, caregivers, older athletes and coaches.
