The Centre was originally called the Lalor/ThomastownLittle Athletics Centre. There were two foundation clubs competing after splitting from the Preston/Reservoir Little Athletics Centre in 1980.
They competed at the Partridge Street Reserve in Lalor for two years, then moved to the Alexander Avenue Reserve in Thomastown.
Much effort was dedicated to improving the facilities, but instead of an upgrade, a grant was provided to construct the Meadowglen International Athletics Track which is our current home. Apart from providing a world class facility to athletes in the City of Whittlesea, the track was constructed to cater for international countries to utilise as a training facility in the lead up to the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games.
Five clubs moved from the Thomastown Reserve being Epping, Lalor (now Meadowglen/Lalor), Lalor Stars (now Northern Stars), Mill Park/South Morang and Thomastown (now the Tigers). A sixth club has since been founded, Metro.
The Centre celebrated it's 30th anniversary during the 2011/12 season.
We compete at the Meadowglen International Athletic Stadium. McDonalds Road; Epping; Victoria
Our Centre is affiliated with Little Athletics Victoria, which is part of the Australian Little Athletics Association.
