PAPANUI TOCH ATHLETICS 

Welcome to the new online home for Papanui Toc H Athletics!  With a proud history spanning nearly 70 years, we provide a supportive environment for athletes of all ages and skill levels.

Athletics is a summer sport with the season running from October to March. As the 2024/25 season has now finished, registrations have closed.  The 2025/26 season will commence September 2025.  We do offer Harriers training, and interclub races, during the winter months.  More details will be avaliable soon!

During summer, we run junior club nights on Tuesday evenings from 5:30pm to 7:00pm at our club base at Papanui High School, 30 Langdons Road, Papanui, Christchurch.  We also run middle distance events (800m and 1500m) starting at 5.10pm for those interested.

Club nights offer a mixed program of coaching and friendly competition for ages 5 to 14. They provide a great introduction to the techniques and skills required in each of the athletic disciples for new athletes and allow more experienced athletes to brush up on the basics and add an extra training session to their week.

• Tuesday Junior Club Nights Commence: 2025/26 season to be confirmed.

• Saturday Children's Interclub Athletics Commence: 2025/26 season to be confirmed.
