The Centre was originally called Lalor/Thomastown, which were the two foundation clubs competing after splitting from Preston/Reservoir in 1980. They competed at Partridge Street Reserve in Lalor for two years, then moved to the Alexander Avenue Reserve in Thomastown.
Much effort was dedicated to improving the facilities, but instead of an upgrade, a grant was provided to construct the Meadowglen International Athletics Track which is our current home. The track has been constructed to cater for International events should the need arise.
Five clubs moved from the Thomastown Reserve being Epping, Lalor (now Meadowglen/Lalor), Lalor Stars (now Northern Stars), Mill Park/South Morang and Thomastown (now the Tigers). A sixth club has since been founded, Metro.
The Centre celebrated it's 30th anniversary during the 2011/12 season.
We compete at the Meadowglen International Athletic Stadium. McDonalds Road; Epping; Victoria.
Our centre is affiliated with Little Athletics Victoria, which is part of the Australian Little Athletics Association.
