Organisational Overview

The NSW Athletics Partnership (NSWAP) entails Little Athletics NSW (LANSW) and Athletics NSW (ANSW) delivering the first entirely unified and single Athletics offering in NSW in 56 years and has three main components: 

• A single Affiliation structure
• A single Membership offering 
• A single Championship and Events pathway. 

The NSWAP ensures the removal of duplicated membership costs and administration processes, while also significantly expanding competition opportunities and pathways for all members by providing everyone with the best that both LANSW and ANSW have to offer. 

NSW Athletics provides the framework for over 50,000 registered members and participants to enjoy athletics at all levels of performance, working closely with our 230+ member centres and clubs for the best interests of the sport of athletics throughout NSW.

As a result of this Partnership, our sport is currently experiencing a surge in popularity and in participation and performances. Together, we are poised to build on the momentum of this summer to inspire the next generation of athletes and fans and to continue growing the sport in NSW.
