Winter Season – Cross Country – April 2025 to August 2026
Our free Trial Athlete Offer for Cross Country is now open. Click here to register. Make sure you select “Caulfield” when completing the online form.
At Team Caulfield you’re invited to one (1) competition trial and one (1) training trial – free of charge – before committing to full membership. This gives everyone involved a good understanding of what Cross Country is all about and how the weekly events operate.
Competition Trial
You are welcome to come to a competition day on a Saturday morning at Bayside Cross Country.
We recommend arriving at the event venue by 8:10am to walk the course. Competition will finish based on the time of your child’s age group event. Please note that Under 6s are only able to compete at Bald Hill and Braeside Park.
Training Trial
Training night is Monday 5:00pm to 6:00pm. Training takes place at Duncan Mackinnon on the grassed area near the netball courts.

Summer Season – Track & Field – September 2025 to March 2026
At Team Caulfield you’re invited to 1 competition trial and 1 training trial – free of charge – before committing to full membership. This gives everyone involved a good understanding of what Little Athletics is and how the weekly events operate.
Our free Trial Athlete Offer for the 2025/26 Summer Season will open in September 2025.
Competition Trial
You are welcome to come to a competition day on a Saturday morning. Take a look at our Season Calendar for a date that suits your family.
We recommend arriving at the track before 8:15am for a 8:30am start to allow some extra time to check in. Competition usually finishes around 11:00am depending on the program.
On competition days athletes take part in a range of track and field events depending on their age, and the focus is on athlete improvement and personal bests.
Athletes are in their age group for the morning (e.g U7 Girls, U7 Boys) and are supervised by an Age Group Manager and Assistants who are parents with children in that age group.
Please note that our Under 6 program is called On Track and is an LAVic program that is designed to develop skills rather than as formal competition.
Training Trial
Training is held at the track on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 5:30pm to 6:30pm during the summer season.
Training is coached by high level coaches to assist in developing children’s athletic skill across all events.
As a trial athlete you can register for your trial training session by emailing Julie at trial@caulfieldlittleaths.org.au.
If you have any questions please email our Assistant Registrar Julie at trial@caulfieldlittleaths.org.au.
