Our History
The Christchurch Avon club was formed in 1989 from the amalgamation of Christchurch Athletics and Harrier Club circa 1922, which was one of the first non-church clubs, and Avon Amateur Athletics Club circa 1974, which had a strong input from Burnside Highschool PE teachers. The blue in our singlet is from Christchurch and the orange from the Avon club. We have a proud and diverse history on which to build our strong future.
