Senior Track and Field events are run by the Athletics Wellington Track and Field Committee, and provide the main competition for seniors (15+) and masters throughout the season, held at Newtown Park.

Juniors (generally 12-14 years) are welcome to compete at these meets and we strongly encourage this to gain more competition experience.

Our LHAAC club singlet must be worn at these events and Athletics Wellington generally issue a numbered bib for the season.
