Most Improved Award
One of the aims in Little Athletics is to improve individual athletic performance and to provide incentives for athletes to improve through collaboration with “Family, Fun and Fitness”. Everyone likes to win, but not all are able to. All however are capable of improving and achieving a worthwhile standard. Our Most Improved Award is therefore aimed at recognising and rewarding improvers, not just winners.

 Caloundra RSL Merit Awards 
These awards have been introduced to acknowledge the talents of young athletes and provide incentive for these athletes to continue with their athletics.

Junior Champion/Senior Champion Perpetual Shields

In 2013 Jessica Haig proposed the establishment of a perpetual Encouragement Award for the junior members of Caloundra Little Athletics.
“I have been a member of the Caloundra Little Athletics Club for over 10 years and have thoroughly loved the people, competition, sportsmanship, atmosphere and challenging myself. I would like to give back to the club that has given me such a wonderful grounding in athletics and camaraderie. I remember in my early days at CLAC in some events I was not able to achieve what the other athletes of my age could attain – but I was always enthusiastic, persistent and wanted to constantly improve. Because of  this attitude I have continued to grow as a person and as an athlete and   am now able to perform competitively at a high level in the sport, whilst still loving every minute of it.”
Jessica Haig

Katey Brassey Coach's Award
Katey Brassey loved attending training as an athlete. But a significant injury lead to a in focus and at 14 she became a junior coach. The award is selected by our coaches and is an athlete who regularly attends training, shows respect, listens and tries their hardest to do what the coach shows them. They practice what they are shown and are happy to help their friends with tips and tricks they have learnt.
