And that’s a wrap for the 22/23 Little Aths State Track & Field Championships.

A weekend of great weather matched by great performances by a record number of SMDLAC athletes who progressed through from the Regional carnivals.

We had athletes who were competing for their very first time at state level, look out for these athletes next year when they’re back with the experience of such tough competition.

We saw some PB’s smashed overall across all age groups – these athletes know how to perform on a big stage and it brought out their best ⭐️⭐️⭐️
