WELCOME TO THE
RIVERHEAD AMATEUR ATHLETIC CLUB
Welcome to Riverhead Amateur Athletic Club, proudly serving the community since 1959!
We welcome children in Grades 2–14 to join us at Riverhead War Memorial Park for fun, skill-building and athletic development.
Club Nights are held every Monday, with 40-minute sessions for Grades 2–4 and 1-hour sessions for Grades 5–14.
Tiny Tots (Grades 2–4)
Arrive from 4:30pm for a 4:40pm start and 5:20pm finish (four x 10-minute rotations)
Grades 5–14
Arrive from 5:15pm for a 5:30pm start and 6:30pm finish (four x 15-minute rotations)
Our Tiny Tots (Grades 2–4) focus on fundamental movement skills through fun games and activities. Grades 5–6 develop running, throwing and jumping techniques, while Grades 7–14 participate in a wider range of running, jumping and throwing events.
Progress and results for Grades 5–14 are recorded throughout the season via Club Manager.
👨👩👧 Parent Help & Safety
A parent or caregiver must remain at the grounds during Club Nights and is responsible for their child throughout the session.
Riverhead Athletics is a volunteer-run club. Parents and caregivers are expected to assist with their child's group when required, including helping with event rotations, equipment and supervision.
Your involvement helps us provide safe, organised and enjoyable Club Nights for all our athletes.

🌞 2026/27 Summer Athletics Club Nights
Our summer athletics season runs from October 2026 through to March 2027, with our first Club Night planned for late October.
Our exact opening night depends on Auckland Council releasing and marking the fields for summer sport. We will confirm the opening date as soon as we receive confirmation from Council.
📍 Important Field Update
Due to ongoing Auckland Council works, we may need to use an alternative field layout at the beginning of the season. A field map and any important information will be shared before opening night.
🙋 Get Involved
Riverhead Athletics is run by volunteers, and we are currently looking for additional committee members for the 2026/27 season.
We have the following roles available:
• Grades 2–4 Coordinator• Grades 5–6 Coordinator• Grades 7–14 Coordinator
You don't need to be an athletics expert, and you'll have support from the rest of the committee.
