Athletics SA Christmas Twilight Event
Athletics SA are hosting their annual Christmas Twilight event Friday evening, 16 December.
This event a fun and welcoming Community Athletics Events – a popular way for athletes who have never tried competition running, jumping, throwing, walking, or rolling before. We believe this is a great opportunity for your children who may not be involved in club athletics to come out and have a go.
This year, Athletics SA are offering students discounted entry using the code ‘XMAS22’ for their Christmas Twilight event giving them the opportunity to enter as many events as they wish for only $5! Students will also receive a FREE ice block on the night when registering with the discount code.
