Over our 40+ year history many Hills District Little A’s athletes have set State and Australian records, either as individuals or as a member of relay teams, and a number of gone on to become NSW state representatives at the Australian Little Athletic Championships held each Easter.
The first of these, Jane Ashcroft, won the Shot Put event in 1975, setting an Australian Record which stood for a number of years. Since then, Hills District athletes have been regular members of various State Teams and have performed with distinction.
