How the Centre runs on a day-to-day basis:
The Centre has four paid staff to run the office throughout the year. The Office Manager supports the work of the sections and the Board itself, manages the finances, communications, and registrations also act as Secretary to the Board.
The Coaching Manager works with clubs and coaches on all coaching matters, up skills of current and new coaches by organizing coaching courses at all levels, and oversees the Aspire Development Academy.
The Competition Coordinator is responsible for the online entry portal, the results service at Athletics Auckland events, and assisting the sections with their competitions and events.
The Sports Development Officer facilitates the development of sports programmes and services, and ensures AAI caters for and supports able bodied and people with physical disabilities to be active in sport and active recreation. Social Media facilitates the promotion of AAI’s sports programmes and services
