The club's competition nights are held at the Nuriootpa High School oval on Wednesday evenings at 5:00 pm. The night begins with a warm-up and stretch, followed by athletes being grouped into age groups. They then move as a group through a programme of events accompanied by their rostered age group chaperone and official. The club rotates through 5 different event programmes, each containing a variety of runs, throws, and jumps.
In addition to the club competition nights, athletes also have the opportunity to compete at interclub and state events held on Sundays throughout the season.
