Wyong Athletic Centre Inc. is a well-established sports club located in Central Coast, Australia. The club has been facilitating running, jumping, and throwing activities since its inception in 1978. With a strong emphasis on athletics, Wyong Athletic Centre offers a range of programmes and events for individuals of all ages and skill levels.
Affiliated with the Little Athletics Association of NSW (LAANSW) and Athletics NSW (ANSW), Wyong Athletic Centre is dedicated to providing a welcoming and enjoyable experience for all athletes. The centre operates as a family club, fostering a supportive and inclusive environment for participants, parents, and committee members.
Initially established as Wyong Little Athletic Centre, the organisation expanded its offerings to include senior athletics. As a result, the name was changed to Wyong Athletic Centre in 1980. It became the first joint junior and senior athletics club in New South Wales. Since then, the club has consistently played a prominent role in NSW championship events.
The club's main competition takes place on Thursday afternoons and evenings from October to March. The events commence at 5:15 pm, providing participants with ample opportunity to showcase their skills and compete against other athletes. The competitions are held at Warnervale Athletics Oval, located at the corner of Virginia Road and Warnervale Road in Warnervale.
In the event of wet weather, the club strives to continue training and competition as scheduled. However, if Central Coast Council deems it necessary to close Warnervale Athletic Field, sessions will be postponed or cancelled accordingly. Members can stay informed about potential cancellations or changes by checking the club's official website and TeamApp, the club's primary communication platform.
Wyong Athletic Centre takes pride in its active involvement in zone, regional, state, and national championships. Many club members represent the organisation in these high-level competitions, highlighting the club's dedication to developing talented athletes.
For ease of communication and access to important information, Wyong Athletic Centre utilises TeamApp. This platform is available for download on both Apple iOS and Android devices, as well as through web browsers.
