Let's get AW's terrific trio to the World U20 Championships!

Published Wed 20 May 2026

We're very pleased to announce a fundraiser to assist our members in reaching the World Athletics U20 Championships.
 
Chase Grant, Chelsy Wayne and Maiya Hewitt will be flying the Aussie flag in Oregon this August, taking on the best junior athletes in the world.
 
It's an incredible honour for them to be selected as part of the national team, but it does come with a significant financial cost - Athletics Wollongong are hoping to ease it for them a smidge.
 
We'll be calling upon our community to:
 
  • come along to Wiseman Park Bowling Club on Saturday, June 20th. There'll be barefoot lawn bowls fun, along with some games and prizes. The event will kick off at 3pm and be suitable for all ages. Ticket sales are open now!
Those of a particularly generous spirit, or who prefer anonymity, can also donate to the cause via this campaign.
 
Let's be a part of the Aussie push for greatness at World's! Support our club members and cheer them on.
