News & Updates

As of Sunday 28 February, Auckland is at Alert Level 3 while the rest of New Zealand is at Alert Level 2 for the next seven days.

As a result, no organised athletics or group trainings will be permitted in the Auckland region over this period.

Local athletics in all other parts of the country can continue, as long as the relevant safety measures are followed for Alert Level 2.

Athletics NZ has created Community Guidelines, which all club leaders are encouraged to read and follow, to view the guidelines please click here

At Alert Level 2, it is mandatory for organisations (including clubs and centres) to display a QR code for the NZ COVID Tracer app if they are operating out of their own facility. The process is easy for clubs and centres, for more information please click here
