• Parents are reminded that the children are involved in Little Athletics for their enjoyment, not yours, so encourage your children to participate – do not force them.
• Support all efforts to remove verbal and physical abuse from Little Athletics. Condemn the use of violence in any form whether it is by spectator, coaches, officials, athletes or other parents.
• Recognise the value and importance of being a volunteer. It takes a lot of time and effort to run the competitions on Friday nights. Any help, whether it be small or large would be greatly appreciated. Please see a member of the committee if you can help in any way.
• Respect decisions and show appreciation to the volunteers, coaches and committee members.. They give their time and effort to the club every Friday night. Without them your child could not participate.

• There is a NO PRAMS policy on the fields.
• Smoking and drinking alcohol are not permitted on or around the grounds. This is a Council regulation. Fines for Smoking at a Sporting Event is $550 for an individual.

• Participate for your own enjoyment and fun. Little Athletics is a great way to keep active and meet new kids which can become your friends.
• Always try and do your best. It’s not about whether you win or lose.
• Be a good sport. If someone in your age group does really well in an event, congratulate them on their good performance.

• If you do not follow the Age Managers or parent helpers rules on the ground, you may be sat out of the next event you are participating in, or even sent off the ground for the entire night.
• Remember listen, respect and co-operate.
