• Athletics is conducted all year round but the types of events and competitions vary throughout.
• ​A standard athletics season in Australia starts in September and ends the August of the following year - so one season is conducted over one summer.

• October - March is where the majority of track and field competitions take place with the NSW Summer Series taking place along with State and National Championships.

• ​The NSW Summer Series is the interclub based competition which the majority of NSW Athletes compete in. It includes traditional style athletics carnivals with a range of track and field events so you can run, throw and jump for the club.
• ​From April onwards through winter, there is a greater emphasis on long distance running, road running, cross country and marathon running. Including the associated State and National Championships for those events.
