Each year, the Australian Little Athletics Championships (ALAC) are conducted on behalf of Little Athletics Australia (LAA) by one of the Little Athletics Associations affiliated with LAA. These Championships comprise the Australian Teams Championship (ATC), an Australian Junior Athletics Championship (AJAC) and the Australian Combined-Events Championship (ACEC).
The Australian Teams Championship (ATC) is a competition for the Under 13 age group, where each athlete gains points from events towards a total team point score. Multi-class events are also available in this competition.
The newly introduced Australian Junior Athletics Championship (AJAC) is an individual competition for the Under 14 age group, in which fourteen (14) events are on offer for individual medals. Multi-class events are also available in this competition. For 2023 only, initial offers will be for U13 athletes who finished in the top 3 for each eligible event at the 2022 State Individual Championships. Remaining positions will be offered to U14 athletes who place in the top 3 at the 2023 State Individual Championships.
The Australian Combined Event Championship (ACEC) is an individual competition for the Under 15 age group, with each athlete competing in seven (7) events. Points are based on the best performance in each event and tallied to determine the overall places. A multiclass pentathlon is also held as part of this competition.
Each affiliated Association is entitled to enter a team consisting of; thirty-two (32) athletes in the able-bodied Australian Teams Championship (ATC), a maximum of three (3) athletes per event, per gender for the Australian Junior Athletics Championship (AJAC), eight (8) athletes in the multi-class ATC, a maximum of two (2) multi-class athletes per event, per age group for the AJAC and up to three (3) boys and three (3) girls in each of the able-bodied and multi-class Australian Combined Event Championship (ACEC).
