Volunteering with NSW Athletics – Everyone Can Make a Difference
NSW Athletics is proud to deliver competitions and participation opportunities for athletes at all levels—from grassroots to elite. But to keep providing these high-quality experiences week in and week out, we need your help.

Anyone Can Volunteer

You don’t need to be a coach, official, or have any prior experience. All you need is enthusiasm and a willingness to get involved. Whether it's helping at a local meet, setting up equipment, assisting with check-in, or simply cheering on our athletes—your time and energy can make a real difference

How You Can Help

By volunteering with NSW Athletics, you’ll help us:

• Support our current team of passionate, skilled, and dedicated volunteers

• Sustain club events and competition opportunities that athletes across NSW rely on

• Deliver and expand the number and quality of events, programs, and weekly centre nights across the state

Why Get Involved?

Volunteering isn’t just about giving—it’s also about what you gain:

• Give Back to the Sport: Your involvement directly supports the future of athletics and helps athletes achieve their goals

• Feel Good: Volunteering builds a sense of purpose, promotes connection, and improves wellbeing

• No Experience Needed: We'll guide you every step of the way—just bring your passion

• Grow and Develop: Learn new skills, meet like-minded people, and explore pathways to employment or new passions

Jump the Fence – Be More Than a Spectator

We especially encourage parents, friends, and supporters to jump the fence—move from the sidelines and actively participate in the sport. Your support plays a vital role in the success of our athletes and the continued growth of athletics in NSW.
