The Chad Douglas Award is in recognition of a former South Launceston Little Athlete, who sadly passed away during his Under 9 year. Although not the best athlete in his age group, Chad consistently attended Little Athletics each week, simply to compete, make friends, have fun and strive to improve on his personal bests.

He displayed qualities of a good sportsman by showing concern and respect for both fellow athletes and officials. Chad truly subscribed to the motto of Little Athletics, "Family, Fun and Fitness".

Brett Gillow, a good friend and fellow Glen Dhu athlete, donates this trophy in Chad's memory and each season presents it to an athlete, either male or female, from the current Under 9 age group. The same recipient must possess similar characteristics to Chad and have competed at the Centre for three years, with a consistently high attendance rate.
