SLAC has introduced a hot weather policy. For Sunday morning meets, if the previous nights news service forecasts 36 degrees or higher for the Noarlunga area, there will be no meet. For twilight meets and training nights, if the temperature is 35 degrees or higher at 4.00pm, it will be cancelled. Every attempt will be made to modify events whenever weather conditions are extreme.

Meets are usually only cancelled if there is a constant rain. We apologise in advance for any inconvenience due to natures gifts. PLEASE NOTE: S.A. LITTLE ATHLETICS ASSOCIATION EVENTS ARE NOT CANCELLED DUE TO THE WEATHER! HOT WEATHER PROGRAMS WILL BE PROVIDED IN ADVANCE.

Join The Committee
As the committee members are also parents of athletes, the members can change quite often due to their children becoming too old to be a "Little Athlete".
Therefore, any expressions of interest in becoming a committee member are very welcome. If you would like a description of any particular role, please contact us. All positions are available for nomination at our AGM at the end of the season.
Please contact a current member for more information or download the committee role descriptions at the bottom of the page.
