Welcome to Corroboree Athletics
As a club we offer athletics for everyone aged three and above with a morning of running, jumping and throwing; all in the pursuit of healthy living and fun-filled competition.
Thanks to the generous sponsorship from Tradies in Dickson, we also offer a Tiny Tots program to our 3 and 4 years old’s. Adult athletes (17 and above) that join us will be able to compete as Corroboree in Capital Athletics events and we also offer a couple of events every Saturday morning at the conclusion of our usual program. Capital Athletics have also introduced a new community membership that will allow parents to join in the fun for a cheaper price.
Participation is open to athletes of all abilities – first timers and seasoned athletes alike. Our program provides an array of athletic events including sprinting, middle distance running, hurdling, walking, jumping (long, triple and high), and throwing (discus, shot put and javelin).
Our home ground is Dickson Playing Fields in the inner north of Canberra and weekly meets are held on Saturday mornings from 8.30am from October to March with a break over Christmas and January.
