Expression Of Interest – Little Athletics 2025/2026 Season: We are excited to explore the possibility of bringing Little Athletics back to Canowindra for the 2025/2026 season and would love to hear from anyone interested in participating or supporting this initiative. Thanks to our fantastic facilities at the oval and the expertise of our top Throws Coach, Ernie Shankelton, who is also the Sports Trust President, we are in a great position to move forward. Ernie is keen to see Little A’s return to Canowindra, and with recent upgrades such as the top-quality throws cage and plans to improve the long jump pit, we’re well on our way to creating a world-class environment for young athletes.

Next on the agenda is further developing other areas of the sports oval, including much-needed upgrades to the cricket club’s net area to ensure a safe and high-standard facility for everyone. Please contact Annette Thomas at diggerdo187@gmail.com

• Sunday 22nd 3pm at St Matthew’s Anglican Church Eugowra

• Wednesday 25th 9:30am at St Matthew’s Anglican Church Woodstock

• Wednesday 25th 9:30am at All Saints’ Anglican Church Canowindra

• Wednesday 25th 10am at Cranbury Community Uniting Church

• Everyone is welcome to join us to celebrate this most wondrous event.
