His participation in regional and national competitions has always been noteworthy, showing skill and sportsmanship. Liam's commitment to our club and teammates is truly appreciated.
For those who might not know, our club in Timaru, New Zealand is all about giving athletes, from beginners to seasoned pros, a place to enjoy track and field athletics. We're based at Martins Field on College Road, a great spot for running, jumping, and throwing events. It’s where we host our training sessions, competitions, and events—a well-maintained and safe environment to hone your skills.
If you have kids aged 6 to 11, don't forget our popular Run Jump Throw programme every Wednesday from 5:30pm to 6:30pm. This is a great way for kids to enjoy athletics using modified equipment and games, helping them build confidence and learn new skills in a fun setting.
Stay connected with us on Facebook and Instagram for the latest updates and news. We also send out a newsletter with info about upcoming events, which you can subscribe to on our website – make sure you don’t miss out!
