Lakeside Stadium Hosts Albert Park High School's Weekly Athletic Meets

APS Sport organises high school athletics lead-up meets each week during August and September that lead into the Combined Athletics Sports Day at Lakeside Stadium in Albert Park on the second Saturday in October.

Lakeside Stadium as Central Venue

Lakeside Stadium serves as the primary facility for these school competitions and also hosts two of the only athletics clubs operating in the City of Port Phillip. The stadium infrastructure supports both school programs and community athletics sessions, including dedicated racewalking activities.

Weekly Meets and Seasonal Calendar

The lead-up meets run on a weekly basis through August and September, allowing schools to prepare participants ahead of the main event at Lakeside Stadium. This recurring schedule uses the same venue for consistent training and competition conditions.

Community and School Integration

Local high school athletics draws on the stadium’s track and field setup for events such as relays and individual races. The facility’s role extends to supporting racewalking alongside standard track events, providing a shared resource for APS Sport participants and the two resident clubs.

Details on the lead-up meets and the Combined Athletics Sports Day appear in the APS Sport documentation for the 2025 season. Further information on the stadium’s use by schools and clubs is available through the APS Sport site and Parks Victoria listings for Albert Park community sport facilities. Residents and schools can review the current schedule on the APS Sport website to plan participation in upcoming sessions.
