There will be no training for U16-U18 athletes in the senior session on comp nights. Mosman may run additional comp events during the senior session and will advise athletes closer to the time.

Competing at Championships and ANSW events

From September 2024, a new partnership between Little Athletics NSW and Athletics NSW allows Mosman athletes access to a range of LANSW and ANSW competition and events (determined by age group). If you are a registered member of Mosman Athletics you may compete at these events, although there is absolutely no obligation at all to do so. There are many events held throughout the year.

Uniform – If you are interested in competing, please note that you will need to wear a Mosman Athletics singlet or crop top. These can be purchased online via the link here MOSMAN LAC – Uniforms (sportsmagic.com.au)
