Saint Lucia Athletics Association

The St. Lucia Athletics Association (SLAA) is the national governing body for athletics in Saint Lucia, inclusive of track and field, cross country running, road running and racewalking. The Athletics Association was formerly known as the St. Lucia Amateur Athletics Association. The organisation was founded in 1977 to promote Track and Field in Saint Lucia. In 1978 the SLAA became an affiliate member of the world governing body for athletics, then called the International Amateur Athletics Federation, and now known as the International Association of Athletics Federations.

Based at Olympic House on Barnard Hill in Castries, the SLAA is a non-profit organisation, led by a President, Cornelius Breen, elected at a Biennial General Meeting of the organisation in 2018. Mr. Breen replaced Andrew Magloire, who had served from 2016. Mr. Magloire previously served as president in the 1980s. Mr. Breen had also previously served two terms as president in the 2000's. The SLAA is involved in many aspects of the sport at the local, national, and international level - coaching education, sports science and athlete development, youth programmes and masters (age 40+) competition.
