Below you can read the schedule for events run by Canterbury Athletics.
Club uniform is compulsory and participants must wear their age patch (Juniors) and Seniors their registration numbers at all the competitions.
We would encourage all registered athletes to compete in these various competitions. They get a sense of belonging to the club, competition improves their performance and they meet athletes from other clubs and develop ongoing friendships.
