Parental guide

Little Aths is not like other sports such as netball, cricket, basketball where paid referees oversee activities. It is run by parents and there is an expectation that at least every second week, one parent from each family should make themselves available to assist in some manner. There are a host of activities that require minimal training, ranging from time-keeping, to recording, to starting races. Many parents become weekly Age Group Managers (minders) enabling them to watch and assist their child’s athletic development.
