Eastern Suburbs Athletic Club was founded in 1955. It is affiliated with Athletics Tasmania and supports both the Winter and Summer Interclub competitions organised by Athletics South. The club is incorporated and is run by a committee which meets once a month.
Each year around 100 athletes register with the club, with ages ranging from ten to over fifty. It is the only senior athletics Club on the Eastern Shore. There are no restrictions placed on age or ability, and everyone is welcome.
A club newsletter is provided to members on a monthly
basis to keep members informed of current and future events. The club provides volunteers for a number of fun runs and other community events.
Round the River Community Fun Run and Walk
Eastern Suburbs also organize the annual Round the River Community Fun Run and Walk which takes place in April each year.
