How to Join

Register

Follow these steps to join our club

We recommend you use a PC to access the Registration Portal (step 4) and fill in the forms (step 5) below.

1) IMPORTANT:

Little Athletics Centres rely on parent/family participation to conduct their programs.

By registering your child at Woy Woy Peninsula Little Athletics, you make the following commitments:

At least one adult in your family will:

  • Remain at McEvoy Oval for the duration of your child’s participation at each competition evening, and
  • Sign-up for & fill an advertised duty on a competition evening (eg.  assist at a Field or Track event, serve in the canteen, etc) on at least 10 occasions across the season (we may adjust this number if the season duration is materially altered eg. due to adverse weather).  

NOTE:  Registration is not complete until you have completed steps 4 and 5 below.

 

2) Before proceeding – please ensure you have read the FAQs 

 

3) If applicable, acquire your Active Kids Voucher(s) before you register online

Each voucher (one per athlete) will reduce your registration fees by $50.   For more info refer Active Kids Info.

 

4) Register through the On-line Portal 

Connect to the Registration Portal and register one or more athletes.

Proof of Age is required for all athletes who were not members with WWPLAC in the prior season.  Please upload a copy of a proof of age document (eg. birth certificate, passport etc) for your child during On-Line Registration when requested.

The portal requires you make payment online – be sure to have your credit/debit card available, as well as the details of any Active Kids Voucher(s) you will use.  If the athlete was with us last season (or is/has been a member of a “senior” club), you’ll want to have their 6-digit National Member ID handy.  (This number was emailed to you last year when you registered).

Please use the same Email address (for a given parent/guardian) across all of our systems – Registration, Team App, SignUp, and the Forms listed in section 5 below.

Note:  You must only register children for whom you are the parent/legal guardian, and the contact information you provide must be yours.

*** After completing On-Line Registration, proceed to the following steps.  We can’t complete your registration until step 5 is done.

 

5) Fill in these 2 short On-line Forms

Note:  These forms must be filled out even if you have filled them out in a previous season.

The following forms are mandatory.  Fill them out (online) as soon as you have completed the above on-line registration.  Be sure to click “Submit” at the end of each form!  You won’t be able to pick up your registration pack or participate at Athletics until both forms have been completed and submitted (online).

Click on the links to access the forms:

  • Parent Duty Commitment (PDC) – The “Primary Contact” (ie. the person who registered the children) should fill this out on behalf of their family.
  • WWC Declaration (WWCD) – All adults who may assist in any capacity at our athletics meets (even if they are a parent, grandparent, aunt, etc of an athlete at the Centre) needs to fill out this form, with their details (ie. their Name & their Email address, etc).    This form is short and easy to complete.   Parents & close relatives of registered kids do NOT require a WWC number.

 

6) Communication Tools

Be sure to Follow us on Facebook.  This is the best place to be the latest updates, including any cancellations due to weather conditions.

 

7) Acquire a Uniform

Uniforms are mandatory and available on-line from Sports Magic. Also refer to our Uniforms page for more information.

 

8) Collect your Registration Pack

Registration packs can be collected from McEvoy Oval on our Season Launch or a Competition Evening (only if steps 4 and 5 complete!)

Registrations packs contain ‘patches’ which must be affixed to the athlete’s uniform as explained on the Uniforms page.

Refer the Season Dates for when to collect your registration pack.

Registration Packs will only be provided if:

1)…you have completed Steps 4 and 5, AND

2)…For children registering with WWPLAC for the first time, you uploaded proof of the child’s age (eg. Birth Certificate) during on-line registration, or you present a document, or good photo of it to us.

Note:  Children cannot participate without the patches from their registration pack affixed to their uniform (or clothing if uniform not yet received).

 

9) Familiarise yourself with the process of contributing as a Parent Helper (see point 1 above)

Visit the Family & Parent Help page and for how you go about contributing.  FYI – we need ~100 parent helpers (in addition to the appointed Age Managers) to conduct each Friday competition.

 

Little Athletics / Senior Athletics 

As a consequence of the partnership between LANSW and ANSW announced on 27 March 2024, members of Little Athletics Centres & members of ANSW Clubs now have access to the same, integrated athletics carnival program.  Consequently, the previous requirement for Little Athletics members to join a senior (ANSW) club in order to participate in what were previously recognised as ‘ANSW Carnivals’, no longer exists.
