We launched our new facebook page in conjunction with the 47th Anniversary of the first day of track and field competition for our Club!

Bellarine first took to the track back on October 2nd, 1976. During the 1976-77 season Landy Field underwent works to upgrade from red cinder to a rubberised bitumen track and competition was transferred to Goldsworthy Reserve in Corio.

Our club was officially founded earlier the same year on March 24th, 1976. Originally the intention was to form Newcomb Senior Athletics Club however, with the recently formed East Geelong Club struggling it was decided to amalgamate the two. Bellarine Athletics Club was then established to cater for athletes from the East of Geelong including the Bellarine Peninsula.

Today our members come from all over the region. We are a family friendly Club and our members range from social to elite athletes. Both past and present athletes have represented Australia on the international stage including our most decorated athlete, former Olympic Bronze medal race walker, Nathan Deakes.
