Athletics Tasman

Saxton meets

Athletics Tasman hosts Saxton Meets (formerly "Senior Meets") at the Saxton Athletics Track throughout the summer season, giving athletes additional opportunity to compete between Classic Meets and Children’s Interclubs. With alternating A and B programmes, these meets are short and sharp, and provide athletes with a variety of competition opportunities throughout the season. 

The 2026/2027 track and filed schedule will be released in September.
