The Illawarra Blue Stars Athletics Club is the oldest on the South Coast and has developed a fine reputation with not only people and organisations within the athletic scene, but with other outside organisations that recognise the services that the Club offers. The Club caters for all ages, from Under 8 right through to Veteran Men and Women. A variety of events are held each Sunday in Summer, thus giving people the opportunity to break into new areas.

A reduced competition is conducted one Sunday a month during Winter

Competition is conducted in a friendly relaxed manner, giving families the opportunity of all competing in the same sport, at the same venue at the same time. Very few sports can do this

Coaching can be provided by a number of well qualified and registered male and female coaches in all disciplines of Track and Field.
