There are five Clubs within MWLAC - Cromer, Manly, Peninsula, Seaforth and Wakehurst. Each club is differentiated by the colour of their uniform. Families usually choose a club based upon their friendships, or where they live and go to school.
We are one of the oldest, largest and most successful Centres in NSW having begun on the Northern Beaches in 1970.
Our summer athletics program runs from September through March and includes:
- Regular Saturday morning (with some Friday twilight) athletics competitions;
- Weekly training sessions (optional); and
- Opportunities to progress and represent Manly Warringah at inter-club competitions (subject to selection criteria) including:
- State Realy Championships
- Zone Championships
- Regional Championships
- State Multi Championships
- State Championships
- For older athletes, there are also other "traditional Athletics NSW events", like the Treloar Shiled, High Velocity, Milers and Throwers competitions
