Fun, Skill-Building, and Athletic Growth at Dickson Playing Fields

For young athletes under 12 in the ACT region, FAST Kids sessions at the Dickson Playing Fields offer a unique opportunity to learn and develop foundational athletic skills in hurdles, jumps, and throws. Led by the highly experienced Canberra Athletics Coach Steve Dodt, these sessions cater to children from all clubs and communities—from Gundaroo, Amaroo, Ginninderra, and Corroboree to Woden, Weston Creek, Jindabyne, and beyond.

Coach Steve Dodt, with decades of coaching experience and a proven track record, brings unmatched expertise to every session. Children benefit from learning in a supportive, fun, and structured environment tailored to their skill levels. Whether they’re mastering hurdle techniques, exploring the art of long jumps, or trying their hand at throws, every activity is designed to build confidence, coordination, and a love for athletics.

FAST Kids sessions are tailored to meet the needs of each participant, ensuring that every child—whether a budding beginner or an enthusiastic young athlete—feels challenged yet supported. With a focus on personal growth and skill improvement, parents can trust that results are guaranteed.

Beyond the physical skills, FAST Kids sessions nurture important values such as teamwork, discipline, and perseverance. These benefits extend far beyond the playing field, helping children grow as individuals while connecting them with peers from a wide range of local communities.

Parents and athletes across the region—from small towns to bustling suburbs—are embracing FAST Kids as the go-to program for young athletes seeking to unlock their potential under the guidance of one of Canberra’s best athletics coaches.
