COLGATE GAMES

The Colgate Games are held in January every year and are made up of two events, one in the North Island and one in the South Island. It’s the biggest athletics event for children, with the games attended by hundreds of athletes aged 7-14 years old.

Entry is open to any child aged 7-14 years who is a member of an athletics club that is affiliated to Athletics New Zealand, and both events present an opportunity for children to compete in a fun and encouraging environment. You don’t need to be selected or be a top athlete, though medals are awarded for 10-14 year old’s in each event.  For 7-9 year old’s, the focus is on participation.
