Committee
Athletics Nelson has an executive Committee and several sub-committees. You can find the members and contact details for members (including the chairs of the sub-committees) below.
The Club is entirely volunteer-run, and we rely on members and volunteers to continue to put on the events we do.
We elect our committee at our AGM every year. If you wish to be considered for one of our Committees, please get in contact with us - we would love to have you involved.
If you are unsure who to contact, please reach out to athleticsnelson@gmail.com, and we can point you in the right direction.
